Yep..and I didn't even get started yet.
A total waste of time. Would have been nice to get some notice but then I did have some warnings. Support questions were never answered and the they did answer took them 72 hours to get around to. Wait till their investors have a look at these threads. But of course they could always just lock and delete.

Hmmm, I'm still not too clear about one thing.
If there are 100 people using a service for free, then the service starts charging fees, and 80 of the people leave, but 20 stay & pay those fees, how will the service go bankrupt?
They will be making money from 20 people who were not paying them anything before, and for the 80 who left, there will be less use of their servers, data storage, and staff, so an actual reduction in their costs likely.
Since we are not now paying them anything, how can we bankrupt them by leaving?
I'm really not trying to be snarky or anything, I just don't get it...
Once again, I'm going to have to ask you to post your comments concerning the new fees in the Announcement thread started by Mark here in the eBay Outlook, or in the threads in the AuctionWatch Services Forum. This forum is intended to be eBay-specific.
Thanks for your cooperation. I'm locking this thread now.
