It's bluring the lines - there is a whole lot of difference between AUCTION and SELLING (esp the <$30 bargin bin). I don't know of ANY other R/C site that charges twice as much to SELL something - in fact I'm not sure if any of them even charge anything to put up a classifieds - Auctions, that's a whole other ball game, and there's eBay, etc. if you want to make more $$ in general.

fwiw, there's always the point being brought up " how can you not support a site you you make money off selling your stuff?" I belive for the majority of us (at least for me, and all my previous FS items here), as a SELLER, I've always "lost" money on a sale rather than make money (paid retails on item, many were still NIB), in fact, it's the BUYER that "makes" money by not paying a higher price. Maybe one should "donate" $20 to have the privilage to buy/bid on items eg, look at commercially, you have to pay a fee to enter an auction to bid; to take advantage of Tower Hobby sales, you have pay a membership fee to get the good deals.

The only people I guess making money are commercial posters, and those that go out to estate sale/swap meets and turn around selling over at the classifieds?

A suggestion, bring back a limited free FS section, or at least a bargin forum - heck, how about just a xtal exchange forum like before?!?
