RE: eBay has Amazon envy: Cuts fees to get more fixed pricing. Yeah, right!
Btw, every time ebay cuts listing fees, the seller takes it in the rear.
Take example a so-called special. Ebay motors offered $1 listing fees for vehicles. The problem with this sale is that it ended up costing buyers MORE!
Normally it would be $40 to list, and either $40 or 50 if the vehicle sold.
With this "special" sellers could list for $1, but would have to pay $109 if the vehicle sold!
SOME SPECIAL!

Imagine if all companies did this.
Gas prices: .01 9/10 per gallon!
The Catch: $100 to pick up the pump.

Groceries: Banannas .10 per pound. Milk, $1.19 a gallon.
The catch: $300 to pay with cash, credit card, debit cards, or check.

You get the idea.

Thanks ebay, but, no thanks.
I cant afford your "new lower prices". I prefer the old more expensive ones.
