10% OF POSTAGE

[seahorse.stamps]

THROWING THIS ONE OPEN TO THE COMMUNITY.

The reason that Ebay takes 10% of postage is TO TEACH SELLERS THAT IT IS NOT GOOD PRACTICE TO OVERCHARGE ON POSTAGE. Ebay taking 10% is effectively defeating the whole object of the exercise and this is a FACT. To send an item for £3.30, the seller would have to charge £3.67 which after EBAY's 10% would actually leave the seller with £3.30 to post item, thus EBAY IS FORCING UP THE COST OF POSTAGE.

DO YOU AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT and is Ebay handling this whole thing wrong.

Ebay should be working with it's members in the Community to combat this problem, not penalize it. As the saying goes TWO WRONGS DONT MAKE A RIGHT, Ebay is no different than those who caused this issue, they have just made it worse.
