Digital Delivery Sellers, Kiss your Livelyhood Goodbye

jeffsMember

In case you have not heard, if you are a seller of "digital delivery" items (ebooks, templates, patterns, etc) you are now a leper on eBay. As of March 31 you are no longer welcome to sell your items. They are banned. The only way to list this type of item now is in the "classified ads" section where it will cost you $9.95 per item for 30 days. These transactions have no final value fee, and do not allow a feedback credit to be given.

and here:

and of course, the official announcement, here:

Why? Well, you abused the feedback system. You did, right?

My sympathy goes out to anyone who was making a living selling this type of item.
