Ebay Scammers

Not a buyer or indeed a seller but ebay themselves.

I had to do a bulk edit of some items last night, 134 in total. As I clicked to process it it told me the charges for this would be £434!!

The swines had added in the gallery and picture packs on around half the listings. The listings certainly didn't go on with these added as I check before they are listed to make sure my fee is 5p.

Now, whilst I dodged this this time, what a crappy thing even try to allow to happen. But one more click would have been very costly indeed

Would these items, when they were autolisted at the end of the 30 day period had these charges added anyway?

    I edited a couple of items, and just as i was about to submit noticed i was about to be charged £1.80 ish.

    Don't know if its happened in the past and ive missed it. Took me ages to realise they were adding picture pack and gallery WITHOUT ASKING!!!
  • Ebay have also also failed to pay £50MILLION!!!! In UK taxes. Could you imagine if we didnt pay our eBay fees?
  • Bloody hate them!

    Me too. Don't have that many problems with them myself - just hate the way they treat people, dodge UK law and taxes - and think they are better than everyone else.
