Ebay is making millions off of us, it is a good site for buyers but not for the sellers. You pay them good money for a service and they do not hold there end of the bargain.
You pay for a item to be listed for 24hrs and after you agree they say it might take up to four hours for it to show up on there site, well then you have lost four hours that someone could have been searching for that item and you missed a sale. They charge for a 24hr listing not twenty. Your time starts as soon as you click OK and it should start as soon as your item is available to view to the public.
They also say the word (not) in your item description is spamming and they cancel your auction. Example
1948 Denver mint nickle not silver
They consider the word (not) misleading and they will cancel your auction. But you can put down
1948 Denver mint nickle looks like silver but it is something other. And its OK.
The problem I have with that is they shoot out a email to people who are bidding on your item stating it violates ebay policy and ruins your reputation, and the ability to resale the product.
