eBay

Simple question. Do you think these new changes they have introduced a good or a terrible move?

For me personally they are bad because I will have to leave.

Simple Delivery just doesn't work for what I sell, lots of people on here saying the same.

Big question is what are the benefits for buyers or sellers cannot see any myself?

I've been selling books on ebay for a long time now and the change to mandatory 'simple' delivery means that I'm just going to have to leave the platform.

Nothing in the process makes it simpler for me, quite the opposite, and I refuse to participate in ebay's scam to just scalp some of the postage costs for themselves. It was bad enough that they added the 'buyer protection fee' (which I didn't even know was being added to my items until I logged onto the site as a different user).

This is all because they decided to go 'free to sell' in a desperate attempt to match the competition and now they have to find back-door ways of making money.

Don't know why! Maybe its this hot weathers getting to me! but can't help it every day past week I look on here with this stupid idea, someone's got insider information about the eBay people who put together and introduced these new changes have all been sacked forthwith and even lost their Christmas bonuses, and eBay's going back to the old system we all love.

Do you think it's wishful thinking? or just stay out of the midday sun could be frying my brain?.

Will have another peep tomorrow though.
