Important News for eBay Sellers!
======================================
Today, we are announcing two changes to the current eBay price structure. Effective Wednesday, January 31, 2001, we are increasing insertion fees and adding a charge to the 10-day listing option. Final value fees, other feature fees and insertion fees for vehicles, eBay Premier and Real Estate remain unchanged.
--------------------------------------
Insertion Fees
--------------------------------------
Here are the old and new price schedules for insertion fees:
Opening Value or Reserve Price: $0.01 - $9.99
Current Insertion Fee: $0.25
New Insertion Fee: $0.30
Opening Value or Reserve Price: $10.00 - $24.99
Current Insertion Fee: $0.50

Current Insertion Fee: $2.00
New Insertion Fee: $3.30
--------------------------------------
10-Day Listing Option
--------------------------------------
A new ten-cent ($0.10) fee will be implemented for the 10-day listing option. The three-day, five-day and seven-day auctions will not have an additional fee.
We recognize that price increases directly impact our sellers. The last time insertion fees or final value fees were increased was December 1996. We will continue to build a vibrant marketplace by investing heavily in technology, marketing and customer support to make it possible for millions of people to discover and use eBay.

You think that makes YaWho? look like a bargain?? NOT! You need a buyer base to make it worth paying the fees and YooHoo! doesn't offer that!

Is there a new yahoo I dont know about because the yahoo I sell on is chargeing me $1.00 to relist my items 4x with no sales.
The ebay I know is chargeing me .30 to list for 7 days and 90% chance of selling items off.
