 Question to members:  Are the combined ebay and paypal fees too high?  I am a big believer in capitalism and free markets, however I do not think that makes it right to have such high fees.  Too bad there is not much competition out there for ebay/paypal.  What gets me is that the only way ebay allows you to pay is through paypal.
 
 Thoughts?  MAybe i am just a cheap bastard.  haha

 Kind of the the combine City, State and Federal taxes that are imposed on the sale of items. 
And the huge taxes on items such as Gas, Tobacco and Alcohol.
