Default eBay - now is our chance!!!

Posted By: Dan Bretta

He is intent on killing ebay...I am convinced of that. Now when I go to put up an auction it tells me my shipping is out of line, but you know what I'm getting killed on shipping. I tried to list an auction with 100+ atari cartridges and I put the shipping at $15...ebay told me that my shipping was out of line and that starting in October there would be a limit on shipping for the vintage game category..so I went back and changed it...I sold my Atari cartridges, packed them up and took them to the post office...it cost me $18 to ship that package..there was no cheaper option. Ebay is forcing sellers to lose money on shipping. I listed another auction of 10 vintage playboy magazines from the 1950s and placed them in the magazine (back issues) category...I figured $7 for shipping on the lot...my post office does not allow media mail for magazines at all...and they will have you open the package to make sure you are not cheating them. Well ebay tells me that you can not charge more than $3 shipping in that category. WTF???
