Who uses eBay anymore? I feel they've priced themselves out of the online auctions because of fees for eBay then hitting you on the backend with PayPal.
I use to sell a lot on eBay, but they kept cutting into profits with increased fees, now I don't even buy on there. It was a tough transition at first, not going to
eBay to check price or listing items to make a few bucks, but I pretty much all but forgot about them now. (Ironic that I'm making a post about them right?)
I only mention this because recently everyone is trying to sell AR mags and parts and got to thinking, how much profit are the really making? They could have sold it here or elsewhere for less to someone that truly wanted it for their own use (hard to prove I know) and probably still pocketed a better profit for themselves.
Amazon's where it's at now anyway!
Yes fees are high. Listing fee(sometimes) plus final value fee plus paypal takes a cut on the payment. But for me, ebay is still the best place to list unusual or unique items. They have a huge audience that really no other auction site can match. So yes, you pay higher fees, but most of the time, I can get better prices, so it all evens out.
