There was no additional sellers premium or listing fee for anything that sold over $25.00. Now that bottom level was jacked all the way up to $2500 bucks, on top of the 2% increase in the buyers premium.
So essentially, a 20% selling fee went up to a 27% selling fee, since I don't generally play in the higher end playground.
I had what was left sent back to me. I guess I'll go back to dealing with the hassle of Ebay myself.
I understand them not wanting to handle that stuff. They probably discovered they didn't have enough incentive to inventory, store, handle and ship out the cheaper cards in their weekly auctions.

OK, just got another e-mail from them stating that graded cards from the vault, are still at a 0% sellers commission, though buyers premium is still going up to 22%. $5 listing fee now applies for any card that sells below $50 now, instead of the previous 15 or 20 bucks or so...which I totally understand.
Not a huge deal, but wish they would have made that clearer with the earlier e-mail.
