Bob,
I am right there with you man. I am a Power Seller and the button that says "See if you qualify for reduction in Relist Fees" is a joke because you never qualify. I have been relisting on 10 day auctions the same item for six months. And I sell enough to keep the Power Seller tag.
The per item sale cost has gone up. Pay Pal has gone up. MC/VISA don't charge me what Pay Pal does but if you don't use Pay Pal you are pushed aside.
But what else do we have? Craigslist? Not even. Yahoo auctions? Nothing sells.
Not to mention if you had a neutral or negative feedback from 10 years ago they still show you have it. And that was long before arbitration. I have not had either in 10 years.
So boycott I am not sure I can do. I have too many repeat sales to do that. While what I sell is not my bread and butter it is good extra money. (aka beer money, HHO parts, etc)
And I agree the FV fees are usary. I don't charge that much to sellers when I do an antique auction locally. My fee is 3% of final sell.
But Ebay right now is the only game in town and they by gawd know it. And in the land of the blind the one eyed man is the king.
Just my 2 cents,
Roger

I'm not sure if many of you are aware of the recent fee structure
change on eBay, but this affects many of us that have been using eBay
to buy or sell materials related to this research.
I have sent an email to eBay expressing my feelings about this
matter. Here is a copy of what I sent to eBay;
"I find your recent advertisements to be rather insulting to my
intelligence.
On the one hand, you hype it up that you are lowering listing fees
(by a small amount I might add), and offering free Gallery. While on
the other hand you are raising final value fees by a huge margin!
I hope every seller on eBay joins me in boycotting your services in
protest over this!
Bob Boyce"
I hope others will consider boycotting eBay in response to these
greatly increased Final Value Fees. Base fee increase was 5.25% to
8.75%, a very large increase in selling costs to sellers.
Bob
