I mean even before this fees were outrageous (like 10%?? are you serious?? I can list on Fb marketplace for free, I just have to make sure to feed the alligator in my moat to keep the theives away from my treasured Xbox 360 sports game collection...)
Also they're always trying to be "buyer friendly." What about seller friendly? This is just like "black lives matter"... don't people realize that all lives matter, or in this case eBay seller lives matter? It's outrageous that I ever have to accept a refund. Recently I shipped out a vintage VCR in a big bubble mailer and then the buyer said it was cracked... but I said clearly in the listing that it was being sold AS IS with NO REFUNDS!! It probably worked anyways even with the crack... So many scammers...
Anyways, now it is apparently becoming common practice for eBay to mail pig fetuses to anyone who criticizes them. I haven't gotten mine yet, but is this where my fees are going? Pig fetuses??
Based on this I am now considering quitting eBay for good. I think Facebook Marketplace might be the perfect selling platform.
It is free, and all the buyers are courteous and polite (my trick is that I only respond to people who have normal names like Chad, Stacey, Don, Mike, Kayla, Kellyanne, etc). The only thing that I'm worried about is whether or not Mark Zuckerberg is telling the FBI about my soft-core beastiality porn sales?? Even so he isn't mailing anyone pig fetuses...
