For core insertion fees for auctions and Fixed Price listings on eBay.com, the lowest tranche fee (i.e. for items with a starting price of $0.01 to $0.99) will be lowered from a quarter to twenty cents.
I still think this one is odd. I think I understand the reasoning behind it (lower starting bids should generate more revenue for eBay) but doesn't it further encourage fee avoidance?
I wonder what the percentage is of legitimate auctions that start for 99¢ or less?
