I do ebay to sell a good bit of stuff and its not really worth the time and effort. I really think that if some of the sellers would keep good track of there exspenses they would see that they are not making any money..Ebay & pay pal ( owned by ebay )both collect fees off every sale.
Its getting close to 20 % on fees.Then there is the cost of a Ebay store if they have that..Also all the packing supplies,,,travel to the post office..
its less than minimum wage by far.
