Do people here still use Ebay?

like many users have already stated..

1) Its getting more difficult to find good deals
2) Shipping almost always kills the deal

i, personally, love the sales forums on Cybertron.ca because not only can we find better deals but negotiating is ALOT more convenient! plus, the sellers on these boards are willing to work with the buyer because they themselves are collectors and have an idea of what the buyer is looking for

I've never sold before on ebay and how much are the fees? Will I be told ahead of time when setting up the auction?

This is non Transformer stuff I want to sell.

I sold a lot for $60 recently, they hit me for $7.37 in fees. RIDICULOUS.

That is one of the major reasons people using ebay and paypal are inflating there prices. To make up the difference in service fees. Most things use to get marked up on Ebay for a few bucks here and there bit now. Trying to make a slight percentage after paying all te service fees. Whats the point?

[ConvoyGTR]

So, what were the fees like before?

I mainly use ebay when I can't find something at retail or through folks on sites like this one. Even then it's hard to find a deal, but still how I've managed to hunt down older or more obscure figures.

I've bought stuff on ebay since I started collecting. But I could never seem to wrap my head around how anyone makes any money selling with all the fees associated with Ebay and Paypal combined.

I still sell video games online occasionally, but not much in the way of transformers.

I haven't sold on ebay for a while ever since they modified there site,.. but I do buy quite frequently mostly the Japanese TFs ,stuff thats cancelled or short packed, lucky draws,older stuff that sort of thing, find paypals coverage BS always use the card co. to retrieve funds when things go wrong as ebay and PP are usless

Isn't it just 25 cents to list something there? That's what it cost last time I sold a 4x external CD burner. That was the last thing I sold there.
