RE: E-bay Pricing?
Yep, it's plain wrong. It's almost like when McDonalds bought their way ($330000) to having the "Heart Foundation tick of approval" (like a health food benchmark.... McDonalds ffs!).
Australian Sellers (and soon the rest of the world) get quadruple-f__d, you pay:
eBay: listing fees, listing upgrade, final value fees
Paypal: aus to aus (same currency) fee (just for accepting payment from another australian ebay member), then fund withdrawal fee if amount is under $150
The changes (Ebay Australia being the guinea pig for future changes) will make ebay a lot more fiddly, expensive and possibly dangerous for sellers (cant use any postage methods except trackable ones, or buyer can reverse transaction). Plenty will and have already planned to jump ship, to oz-tion for example...
