"The Monster" is the name I gave T206

Posted By: Mark Hellman

I'm no fan of paying fees, but IMHO there's never been a cheaper way to sell cards than ebay. Basically you're looking at 35c to put your card in front of the world for a week. Before ebay, you had to take out an ad somewhere that would generally cost a hundred times that and more. I'm not an expert on fees, but what is the seller's fee - 3%? Compared to 25% for Mastro?

Like any other business, they aren't going to please everybody all the time, and, when screw ups happen, it is understandably frustrating. No argument there. But I don't see the problem with the fees. To sell cards before ebay meant buying a table for 100 or 200 dollars, taking out an ad in a hobby paper for lord-knows-how-much or opening your own business.

Am I missing something? It just seems too simple. There must be something I'm missing, but I don't know what.
