there earnings came in less then 'expected' so they will be jacking up fees soon
That and the new best offer (that makes you pay more) and immediate payment required auctions (which make you pay A LOT more) _________________ New for 2025! The CPU Shack has a co-processor!

Another change is picture resolution minimum size of 500 pixels. I couldn't relist some auctions quickly because of that. _________________ Visit ABC CPU - Virtual CPU Museum. |

It is stupidity in the extreme. I often use the "view item" thing to see what people are buying and from whom so that I can follow "leads" to find the stuff I want. eBay are really f-ing dumb at times - first the feedback mess and now this. _________________ best rgds.

| another change - I can not save sellers in a list. Ebay changed it to, "members you follow", but there is no way to sort them into lists or categories; now it's just one big data dump. |

Another thing I discovered today is if you look at your own feedback as a buyer you cannot see what you bought from the seller who has left you the feedback..........Ridiculous as you don't know what Item the feedback was for  _________________ The Older they are the Better they are. |

They are twits - why don't they just post a list of addresses of people who want things and we can mail them out for nothing? _________________ best rgds.

It feels like eBay want to get rid of small sellers, and promote instead big stores and big brands. Obviously, that mean that they don't want more auctions, they want more fixed price listings. eBay purged thousands of sellers in August, and have been purging more of them every month. With the fees going up, So, in my opinion, eBay is getting worse and worse for chip collecting
