eBay Commentary

You would be surprised to find out how many THOUSANDS of people are listing items on eBay at a LOSS!

eBay counts on underpriced auction items to keep visitors coming to the site. Let's face it, the reason most people come to eBay is to find the best bargain possible. Items that are sold at a loss are the best bargain you can find - and eBay counts on these listings to bring in traffic and revenue! eBay is using clueless sellers to fund their "loss leaders". eBay always gets their fee whether you make money or not!

Have you ever wondered why eBay doesn't provide a built in profit & loss calculator when you list your items. They go out of their way to make it difficult to figure out your cost when selling at their site. If they put ALL costs in plain sight, some people would never list an item. Even sellers that are not losing money would be surprised to learn how little profit they are making. Insertion fees, upgrade fees, payment fees, and success fees all add up. The typical small-time seller actually makes LESS profit on a sale than eBay does.

Don't be one of the clueless sellers!
