Amazon.com Amazon charged me professional fees when I was only an individual seller

Amazon is purely ripping people off and they do not care at all about doing the right thing. Quite simply, this company has EXTREMELY poor business ethics. Period.
After receiving notification online that Amazon had "charged" my credit card I took a step back and was trying to figure out for what? After all I was under the impression that I was an individual seller NOT a professional lister. Therefore I should have only been charged $1.49 per transaction, instead they charged me $29.99 a month for two months.
This was totally ridiculous because I was trying to sell a $10 textbook (as I am a student). So. I decided to call up customer service to inquire about this obvious error and get it sorted out. Well, it got sorted out alright... Like a slap in my face. Not only did the telephone clerk respond with brain washed, insulting customer service psycho-babble, I too, was blocked from being able to re-phone customer service.
The result is this: I took a loss on the text-book because I am reselling it, plus I take another loss because the "alloted" postage that Amazon charges the buyer because in reality it does not even come close to the real cost of postage. — I don't get a dime from the sale of the book because Amazon sucks that up on listing service fees that I NEVER signed up for, and then charges me another $45 for being listed on their website. Can this really be true? Well the truth is: YES... Amazon ripped me off, and I can almost guarantee that I am only one of many that they are doing this to.
So, my advice to you is this: STAY AWAY from Amazon, they will steal money from your credit card when you are not looking and then cut you off from cutomer service when you inquire about getting your money back.
Amazon you should be ASHAMED! I have never in my life been so blatantly mugged and then told well "I am sorry that you feel that way"... Please do us all a favour and take an ethics course.
ALL STUDENTS STAY AWAY FROM AMAZON if you are trying to re-sell your textbooks! They will rip you off!!!
