Reply to "Ebay's FEE increase (again) in March '10"

The whole reason the 99 cent auction starting price got started was to keep ebay fees down. There are a lot of sellers in my cat's that have listing starting a just 1 cent and most of their items sell for that, it's the postage money that counts (no fees) works great for low cost items with little profit margins. That's why ebay gives you better search standing & pushes free shipping along with DSR blackmail, this discourages a low starting price and they can make 9% & 12% FVF off the full listing price including postage! Also they get another cut of your bucks in PayPal where they take a percent of you shipping also!
This is a game of strategy between us and eBay, it's all about who makes the money! No one is gouging on shipping just trying to save.
