Yes, that will happen. But isn't it strange that Ebay's whole justification for this new fee structure is that it will lower shipping costs when everyone knows it will do the opposite? There is the cost of business and then there is doublespeak.

I also think this new structure will hurt sellers and buyers who deal at the low end, where shipping is a higher percentage of the total cost. Since I am not a high roller and also mostly sell cheap items, it seems it will hurt those buying and selling less expensive items.
