Quote:With all the fierce hubbub these days on fee craziness on eBay, what is the online auction giant doing to quell the masses? Does it even have to? eBay stock has been doing just fine even as highly-motivated eBay sellers have been incredibly vocal all around the web on eBay's recent fee hikes. Sure, eBay has seen hikes before, and the resultant seller loudness has quieted down over time. What makes this situation any different?

Quote: Sellers claim they are spending to much for what they get! Buyers will have to spend on some cost pass-thrus somewhere along the line. EBay cannot ignore the fact that they are an ever increasing and larger percentage of the cost part of mechandise so they are contributing to a reduction in the desirability of their website as the customer finds themselves spending more and thus the site being less competitive with other sites.
