I got an e mail from eBay today. Usually i just bin them straight away without reading them....but this one grabbed my attention.
They now allow you to list items for free providing you make it an "auction style" listing and start it at 99p.
Obviously this wont benefit everyone (like those who want to put a reserve price or have a buy it now price)...but if you have a load of totally useless crap laying around your house....there hasn't been a better time to punt it on really*

I saw this also, havent they just edited the final sellers fees so they can rape you that way instead.

They've done this because so many people are complaining about the costs now, they have been losing money. All they will do is add it on somewhere else like the final fee or even the paypal fee's.

That right? 
FFS - I think most people will be asking ebayers to pretend they didnt go through with the sale so they get FV Fees refunded now.

its hard to make any money surely lol, you lose 10% of the sale, then paypal ripoff merchants aswell, they take 20p straight off for the recieving of payment, plus another percentage aswell
