It's true. I've tried my hand with a few items there. The listing fees are free, but if you actually sell something, they make Ebay look downright charitable.

Amazon tried recruiting sports collectibles dealers over there to set up webstores with them, about a year ago or so. I don't know how successful it was. They gave me a call, but I passed on it.

I just couldn't swallow the high store fees, on top of the final value fees, on top of the fact, anybody else could come along a piggyback on top of your descriptions and photos, if they had the same thing you did.
