Looks like eBay fees are going up. eBay Fees. I just got an email from them with this link.

A few years back it was possible to sell coins for 10-12% in fees *including* a 5% consignment fee for someone like me who sells coins for other people. Now that is more like 17%. 9% for eBay, 3% for PayPal and %5 for the fellow doing the listing. It will be 12% for those of you who list coins yourself.

On the fixed price side they have lower fees for the electronics sellers. That is also a low margin biz. They should give coin sellers a lower fee structure too.

Carl,
  FleeceBay's reputation is sinking further & further into the sewer!

You'd be better off selling coins up on http://www.my-little-auctions.com , http://www.overstock.com ,or http://www.wensy.com .

There is a cost to selling on all of those - ABSOLUTELY ZILCH!
