Default E-BAY fees!

Are E-BAY fees a ripoff or what now! I didn't realise they were charging 10% final valuation fees. They ripped £30 off me for selling my Cossie cloth trim for £300, I'm stuffed if I'm going to be using them much longer! No wonder it isn't as popular as it used to be!
So you now pay listing fees, end fees of 10%, you have to pay fees for Paypal, you have to pay more fees if you want to withdraw less than £50 from Paypal, it's hardly worth the effort! Rant over!

I know, i worked out to sell an item for £58.00 cost me £8.00 with the Ebay fees and pay pal fees.

But Ebay is the only one of its kind, there is no other platform to sell a multitude of items

Total ripoff, especially as stuff isn't making much money anyway, I'll buy off it but won't be selling anymore. The guy that ended up buying that trim I could have sold it to without E-BAY, so basically I've lost £30 for nothing. Oh well, you live and learn.
