I honestly do not see how legit people sell cheap items on ebay and still make a decent profit. By the time you get done paying the ebay listing fees, selling fees, paypal fees, cost and time for shipping and handling, replacement for missing items, hours spent answering email. You are better off getting a real job, because you are basically working for them.

Default So True..

But Higher price Items are the ones that hurt.. I think they raised their rates again.

I also noticed this. USPS Shipping went up this year, and then Paypal and ebay upped their fees...

HI- I Agree with all of you..
I have done a in depth cost analysis, down to plugging in the bubblewrap, the email time, the driving to the p.o. when posting intl, back + forth , the tape, buy goods, tie up your money for 3-12 months, etc.ebasy fees, pp fees,
-- I need to buy at say $10, and move for $30, so the formula is 200% profit..(for me anyhow)..
