I am posting this to see what other people think of private sellers who are clearly business sellers, what is annoying me the most about this is they are clearly under cutting prices on business sellers and are clearly make profit from each sale as I know what they are paying for each item they post.I have no clear way to drop my prices to match them due to the fees I have to pay where they do not.Why is eBay not clamping down on these sellers surely there AI could weed them out and advice them they have now gone over the quoter and must register as business seller with HMRC and with eBay as well.I do not understand as surely this would work in eBay favour as they would make more money at the end of the day.I Know people will say oh well tough love but when a private seller sells an item for upto £30 less than a business seller and the business seller has to add on that £30 to cover fees postage etc it does not make any sense to me at all.thanks for any replies
