Am I imagining this ??

Just sold a jacket on EBay. WhenI did the math it looks like EBay fees have recently been increased from about 14.2 percent to 15.5 percent . Has anyone else had this experience ?

eBay sucks dog dick.

The eBay story perfectly encapsulates what went south with all the high hopes for the internet way back in 2000 or so- perfect freedom, no governemnt interference, all were welcome, take the bad with the good. Just sad.

the main issue is that ebay takes their % on the total sum the buyer is paying, which includes shipping cost and tax
