Did anyone else receive the Ebay Magazine recently sent in the mail? It was insulting/condescending, and encouraged things like "Offering free shipping to increase your DSR Rating" They also want you to include colored packing slips, and thank you notes in professionally-packed boxes. Things that few people have extra time for (those of us with other jobs, anyway...)

That's great that they now want sellers to eat all of the shipping costs (which have risen sharply) as they rake in their PayPal and Final Value Fees on the full amounts paid.... criminal.

I will be using auction houses a lot more, and Ebay a lot less for selling. As far as I'm concerned, the ONLY advantage they still offer is timeliness of being paid.
