Ebay's generosity knows no bounds!!!

[Juicyas]

I just got this email:


We're writing with some exciting news about eBay fees. Starting June 16:
Every 30 days, your first 5 Auction-style listings will have NO Insertion Fees when you list with eBay's Sell Your Item form or Simple listing form--regardless of your start price.
The first 5 listings with no Insertion Fees will have a Final Value Fee of 8.75% of the sales price or $20, whichever is lower. Additional items sold during the same 30-day period will have the same Insertion Fees and Final Value Fees as they do today.
If you are currently using an eBay tool or third-party listing solution, you can either list your first 5 Auction-style listings with the new pricing structure through eBay's Sell Your Item form or Simple listing form or continue with your current practices at the current pricing-whichever option works best for you.
This change is part of our continued effort to lower the upfront costs of selling on eBay. The 5 listings with no Insertion Fees are especially helpful for sellers who may not sell in high volume, but offer unique and hard-to-find inventory buyers expect to find on eBay. Learn more.




Wow!! So I'm going to save ~30c x 5 on listing then my FVF are only going to be 9% not 10%....

Anyone feel like accompanying me to Bali using the money they'll save?!?

LOL!

1) You can't list through a third party service so no integrating auctiva checkout
2) 8.75% flat FVF until $20 is reached, which could make the FVF more if the item sells for a lot but not a real lot and of course you can't opt out of it.

They had to throw some kind of "carrot" to POd sellers.. Too little, too late though.

Fargin' eyezhilez! Them tons of peaches!

I think I'll just keep on keeping on the same way I've been keeping on so far. Don't need their token discount.
