Quoted from luch:what a scam ! 10% of shipping , ebay is worst then the UPS shakedown at the front door !
They do that because sellers were artificially inflating the shipping cost while reducing the item cost to avoid fees. Sellers were listing items at $1 with $49 shipping so they pay basically no fees on their sale of a $50 item.
Quoted from Djshakes:I once had a pin listed for $6000. I get an email from someone local asking if they could come look at it and they supplied their phone number. I had it listed on clist and Mr pinball classifieds as well. The guy that emailed me never came to look at it. I ended up selling it through pinside or Mr pinball, I forgot which. I ended the item on ebay. They ding me with $600 final value fee and insisted I sold it off ebay.
An easy way to deal with this situation is once you have a deal with someone locally just jack the price way up on ebay (to the point where no one will even think about it) and let the auction end by itself.
