End of 60% or 70% discounts on commission fees
Summary: prosopagnosique is worried about no longer receiving substantial discounts on eBay commission fees, a situation that has lasted for three months, and wonders whether other users are experiencing the same problem. koalagris mentions that this topic comes up often on the forum. geneclo shares a similar experience and chooses to sell on other sites to avoid the fees. atoutbabs confirms that eBay has changed the discount terms and is considering switching to a competitor. Other participants also share similar concerns about the discounts.
I no longer receive any 60% or 70% discount offers on Ebay commission fees, for about 3 months now... Am I the only one in this case, or is it general?
They were offered to me every Friday morning for quite a few years, and then all of a sudden nothing... So I’m wondering whether I’m being punished, or whether other people are in the same situation!
Thanks to everyone for your replies to this post, whether you have this discount or not, I’d like to know if I’m the only one in this situation!

·9 months agoBut from now on, no more discounts for 3 months,
I received a response from eBay telling me that the operating procedures for discounts have changed.
So from now on, I'm off to the competition.

for me it’s been 3 weeks, whereas usually it’s every 15 days, but the discounts are no longer 60-70 percent, only a maximum of 50% - let’s wait and see - regards

The wheel turns, the criteria vary, and in the end it's a bit each person in turn...

OP1 year agoThanks for this reply, but it’s soon been 4 months without promos, so I no longer use Ebay to sell; otherwise it’s a loss... especially their 10% on shipping fees, which is downright outrageous!

OP1 year agoFinally, a real answer, thanks geneclo! Just like you, I removed all my listings from Ebay, and I'm selling very well elsewhere without any fees at all! 😉

especially their 10% on shipping fees, which are frankly outrageous!
there are still some free sites but not many sales happen there
at the limit, better to be 90% of a good deal than 100% of a bad one
you reap what you sow
