I am inclined to agree Raymo.
Ebay offers a window to a huge market place and a support structure and they deserve to be paid a decent return for the huge investment that is Ebay.
I really think the folk who are grizzle grizzle grizzle cause they are expected to pay fees that really are not unreasonable given the small "price" of the item are not really the thinking it thru and remembering times where you had to take out a printed add in a city newspaper that reached a very small market. and only got an add that for practical purposes lasted little past 24 hours.
They could ask 25% on small items and that not be unreasonable...AND Lewis if you lost money it is not Ebay's fault but indeed yours.
