  1. The usual CON why must you “actively opt in to receive the 2% fees”, why do they not just give it to people for all sales in that time period?

    Do I need to cease all my listings and then re submit them? As an item that got re-listed on the 9th will not get any benefit till it re-lists on the 9th August.

    Usual cowboy offers from eBay.

  2. Had a phone call from eBay some week,s back telling me they were trying to help small business sellers like me and told me about this promotion to which I replied NO GOOD FOR ME I DO NOT SELL CR*P. She looked on my site and said I can see that I think we will have to sort something out for people like you. IN YOUR DREAMS. Have not had a reply since. The thing is they are now run by short sighted greedy idiots that can not see that 2% of my £30-£180 perfume would give them more back (I WOULD EVEN SETTLE FOR 5% FEES)
