Yesterday, after eBay UK announced changes to eBay shops, insertion fees, listing enhancements fees and additional shop features, just two of eBay’s European marketplaces announced fee changes in a couple of categories. You’ll need to be aware of the fee changes if you sell on these eBay country sites.
eBay Germany has not announced any changes and, having scoured Announcement Boards across Europe in vain for further announcements, we’re guessing that the major changes on eBay EU sites were limited to the UK.
eBay France Fee Changes
Two categories are affected with the new fees payable from the 30th March 2017.

Its a bit of a stinker and down to us leaving they all hate us and always did roll on the brexit
Looking at the questionaire eBay Germany had a while ago , the fee change is being worked on
Wow, fees drop in those countries, but UK Ebay feels it can hike its fees enormously.
On top of the postal prices hike, it feels like Rip Off Britain is back with a vengeance.
I reckon this is partly due to a lack of competition.
France has cdiscount, priceminster, fnac, ebay and amazon,
Germany has hitmeister, otto, yatego and some others I cant remember, ebay and amazon
We have eBay and Amazon.
Play was destroyed by Rakuten and the rest are new or irrelevant.
This is what lack of competition does. .
