<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 7634685, member: 24091&quot;]I don&#039;t think there is anything easy about selling on eBay. Twenty years ago it was easy, but not so much now days. The world-improvers at eBay can&#039;t leave well enough alone. I waste as much time navigating the new &quot;features&quot; and announcements as I do listing my items on their site.</p><p><br /></p><p>The rapacious fees eBay now charges all aside, eBay was much better when it was the unregulated &quot;wild-west&quot;, free of eBay&#039;s constant interference in transactions. Did some buyers get ripped-off? Yes, they sure did. But only the buyers who didn&#039;t know how the site worked back then.</p><p><br /></p><p>To compensate for the tiny minority of low-intelligence buyers who were taken advantage of, eBay has instead implemented this gargantuan DMV-like bureaucracy in an attempt to arbitrate it all. In spite of all that, plenty of people still get taken advantage of, only now it&#039;s the sellers who are prey.&nbsp; The inability of sellers to leave negative feedback for buyers that are gaming the system makes it my last choice when selling anything. I still use it, but list only about 2% of the listings I once did.</p><p><br /></p><p>For anything significant, I call Stack&#039;s. They answer the phone with a human and connect me to a consignment director in less than 45 seconds most of the time. Go ahead and try that with eBay. After wasting hours on the phone with their call center in the Philippines a few years ago, I ended-up at their table at the Long Beach Show to resolve a problem.&nbsp; That&#039;s not something I am willing to go through more than once.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
