Default RE: Ripped Off By A Fellow Hobbyist.

Fleabay and Peepal are really geared now to the large-volume sellers, who recieve greatly discounted fees when compared to individuals like myself who only sell occasionally. My last batch of items (diecast cars) using them cost me 32% of my sales! PP even charges a 'shipping fee', despite the fact it's me, the seller, who paid for materials, packaged and shipped the item. For small-scale sellers, they're a big ripoff. 

I sell on fleabay, but have ways to avoid the pp fees entirely.
