would you be willing to pay a FVF to eBay for all purchases if it meant sellers fee's were reduced to say 2% FVF?
Also post what you'd be prepared to pay - i'll start...1% FVF in return for a 2% FVF on sales
(i know there are many categories of FVF etc - i'm just interested in the general feeling on the forum)

Your poll is trying to get the goats and sheep to mix.
As a seller of course I would like fees reduced.
As a buyer I couldn't care less how much the seller was charged. So your final option is really redundant.0 -
i know i regretted putting that option in as soon as i pressed submit.
Personally as a seller i couldn't care less what fees my buyers are charged for using the whole eBay experience (rollercoaster more like) - so i guess it works both waysHi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

Sellers are going to vote "yes" and buyers "no" in spite of "as a buyer" so I can't see the validity of the poll? I buy mostly so I voted --- guess?0

Not entirely true..I'm a seller and I think it is a bad idea. I want to encourage more people to use ebay not less, doing anything to discourage buyers will merely hit my sales.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
