I have pretty much given up on
eBay both for
buying and
selling. I don't mind the scammers and the
fakes. What bothers me is that
eBay has become too expensive -- they got too greedy. It felt like a garage sale back in the day when the fees were low and most listings were
auctions with low starting bids and no reserve. It was possible to stumble across genuine bargains. Then they ruined it. The fees are so high now that nobody dares start an
auction too low. Virtually all listings are either retail asking
price or "make offer". And some dealers have ruined it with multiple listings for the same coin. Fees are so high that it makes sense to stick with reliable dealers. I would rather the dealer get the buyer or seller commission rather than greedy
eBay.
