Just went to the "FAQ" offered by AW regarding new fees...and read the following rather remarkable statement: "We understand sellers prefer a final value fee to a listing fee so we made the listing fee very small." I wonder how AW came to this conclusion as the overwhelming majority of the over 460 posts on the Fee Topic are THOROUGHLY OPPOSED TO THE FVF...and that includes myself. I would MUCH rather pay an increased listing fee than a FVF fee. So...can anyone out there that can tell me how AW came to this startling conclusion...Did they conduct a survey? If so, how and when and who did they talk to? Certainly not me.

They contacted all of their million sellers and asked them what they thought.
Seriously, if you don't like it don't stay. Why question them on what they think they need to do to stay profitable? Who cares where they got the information? People get free services for years on end and #*!@ when AW asks for money? AW is better off without all the whiners.
