Default After 8 Years On Ebay Im leaving

Over the years ebay made me some money..I got lucky found a niche and did sales of over 100k in my best months..over the last 3 years things have gotten progressively worse, buyers are unreasonable and fees were killing my business..Luckly I dodged a lot of bullets with my account being so aged and got the benefit of the doubt being a TRS & PS....many aren't as luck as me. As a good riddance to the game I thought I would pass on any info to readers...
Ask me a question....

If a tree falls in the forest and nothing is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

Looks like the OP may have disappeared up his own arse.

It's always a danger when you are that good.

It is easy to troll a newbie but I will be honest eBay has taken a hit over the past 10 plus years. It is not nearly as lucrative as it once was. I started in 05 when eBay FVF fees were like 3% if they went up to 5% you thought it was crazy. You could sell across the globe sure you would get a few scammers but the number of sales outweighed everything.

Today as a US seller atleast eBay is a shell of what it use to be. Once upon a time it was a great marketplace full of independent sellers. Now largely because of listing fees that is gone.

Overall I can not dispute what he is saying. eBay has lost its luster and we all know how Amazon works. I get f'd even worse for fees on Amazon then the metrics which are insane.

Sometimes when things get slow I do feel like eBay is going the way of the cassette tape or the typewriter.

Far more sales and far higher prices (at least on my inventory)
