Ebay seller price hikes May 2011 bad news for sellers and buyers

 Hi all.

I don't know if this is happening in the USA but here in the UK ebay have today announce a new pricing structure for sellers to make it more clear and to "help our business grow"...right that's the BS story they'd have you believe in the email.

Looking further I myself will be paying an estimated £10,500gbp in final value fees alone, that does not count listing fees or paypal fees either. That is a hike of around £4500gbp in final value fees.  This will certainly not help my business or other low volume sellers business to grow at all.

This does not only effect the sellers but it is sure to effect the buyers too as i bet many stop selling and those that are left have to put the prices up considerably

If there are any sellers out there, and I know there are, no matter the country, and you have a facebook page then please visit http://www.facebook.com/pages/Group-Against-eBay-Price-Hikes-for-UK-USA-Business-Sellers-May-2011/159910287400098  and hit the LIKE button and add a comment. Tell people you know.

It wont make a jot of difference to ebay but it is worth showing a bit of fight.

Cheers me dears

 In fact I have just seen it is happening for USA sellers, so jump on board the face book page and pass it around
