Hi guys. I've read plenty of complaining about ebay lately. I think this is completely justified with the constantly increasing fees for sellers. As you probably know ebay are now adding postage to the final listing fee. Fees are significantly above 10%, including paypal fees.

The reality is that while ebay has the widest range for buyers, that's where they will keep going.

As a frustrated ebay seller I have decided to list my items on Quicksales.com.au as well. It's easy to use and has NO FEES!!

I recommend you give it a go if you haven't already. If we all start listing our items there, at least as well as e@#y, we will increase the range of items available and hopefully attract more buyers to the site.

Perhaps eventually we can all migrate there!?

And live in fee free paradise :P.

I've bought some coins off Quicksales lately, but I find it's not an easy site to navigate.  I guess if I use it more often, I might learn but I tend to forget things within minutes.  :scratch_one-s_head:

I tried Oztion in the early days and was most unimpressed. Has it improved since?
Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

Given that its now owned by Carsales, I'd say so. Of course any site is only as good as its users, and aussie sellers tend towards one end of the spectrum, so I wouldn't expect any miracles.

NO - Totally disagree
since carsales bought it , it has been a nightmare to navigate

ps - why are there no seller fees? that doesn't make sense

dreamcatcher - there has been a seller by that same name on quicksales for many years

my winge about ebay .

number one ,  I own a $ 20.00 note, I list it on ebay
 it sells for $ 21.00  , so I make $ 1.00 profit on it .

 why then should I have to pay fees on $ 21.00 ?
  the first $ 20.00 is mine .
I should only pay fees on my profit of $ 1.00 , which is 10 cents .not $ 2.10 .

 number two , the winner pays by paypal , min fees of .30 cents
so I pay fees of 37 cents to paypal .

 it is easier for me to just spend the $ 20.00 at the club or shop ..

                                       ,, kel ,,
take care because we care ..

Only rumours & scuttlebutt from a Customs Agent i know but Alibaba is apparently looking to go global with an Ebay type operation,listing on the NY SE is only the first step,time will tell but they will surely rattle Ebay's cage.

As a buyer there is simply more items listed on ebay... something potential sellers should note despite fees

Hi Runway. Yes there are many more items listed on ebay but if sellers started to list on quicksales then there would be a similar selection!

I have bought two things from quicksales, but there is not much on there compared to flee bay, I haven't tried selling on quicksales yet but I think I would give it a try, ebay has all my stuff set up so I don't have to do much work on listing items, but I dislike the piss farting around with the pricing and payment system and fees, next month I will be looking into quicksales
