I just sold a bugs life steel book on ebay and after ebay took there 8.5 chunk (which i think is a bit high, if anyone knows of a smaller fee'd alternative feel free to tell me) i checked my paypal and they took another 1.30 listed simply as "fees" but the thing is im useing a basic account so i should not be getting charge any sort of fee's. i swear im getting nickle and dimed to death.

Hello. Glad your finnaly seeing the bigger picture. I quit selling some of my things on ebay just for this very factor. In honesty I'm truly surprised there still around. I'm all for companies making profit..but its how they make it. Ebay imho has goten greedy and truly forget who made them who they are today..it wasn't ebay that made em who they are..it was the people that bought and sold.

I think im about done with this, besides the getting dinged left right and centre earlier today i sold another bugs life steelbook for 34 bucks US, the thing is 20 minutes earlier someone else using the same shipping methods, the same new and sealed steelbook, the same location, same everything sold there's for 47. something is definitely rotten in the state of Denmark.
