I too am sick of ebay and paypal, like Littleuglyeddie above I too have had 2 buyers get refunds and not return merchandise since ebay changed the no bad feedback for buyers rule. Paypal is owned by ebay and is no help. I have spent a lot of time lately looking for alternatives to ebay & paypal. It will come together for us and Greedbay will crash eventually. Thanks for all the leads for new sites. I really appreciate the comments/suggestion here.

SavyAuctions.com is one place where we need to go and list our auctions and classifieds and lets work to rival ebay. Let's start a community of sellers and friends who enjoy selling. No fees ever for standard listings no fees even if they sell. It even gives money to start out for the promotional features. SavyAuctions.com a place to buy and sell.

Just in the week since eBay enforced its "sellers cannot leave bad feedback" rule, I have had TWO buyers demand thier money bak or they woulc leave bad feedback... clincher is they did not want to ship the item back. So they kept it and got their money back too. Well, twice was enough. I closed the ebay store and have began listing more things on Craig's List and on ebid and a few other places. Before I will be be a victim of armed robbery in cyber space over ebay's fool hardy new rule I will go elsewhere. I might still list some stuff from time to time, but you can bet your boots it will be nowhere near as much as they were making off me in fees. I am an powerseller on ebay… or shall I say I WAS?

As a seller you get a piece taken out of you from every which way. The fees are just unlimited, which really cuts into profits. Then Paypal fees nail you, even on the shipping money. Then even if you ship thru paypal, and they have the tracking number, buyers can still complain and get the money back, its nonsense. I am also a listed Power Seller, but not for long, I don't think I really care to sell with Ebay any more. I am really starting to believe Ebay is a joke, I know Paypal is.

One is http://www.auctionjunkie.net they have low fees but are about to offer an option of $10 per month with unlimited listings and no final value fee. They offer a referral payout for referring friends and family, etc. They are currently trying to ink a deal with xcoin. Run by a former ebayer. I've also signed up at http://www.ioffer.com where you can import items directly from ebay into your store but it takes about 24 hours before it shows up. I have also supplemented with craigslist just to aviod the fees from ebay. Also the restrictions that are starting to be imposed by Paypal are beginnig to annoy me. So I have signed up with http://www.xcoin.com. I've noticed that ebay will not allow you to use anything but Paypal so I can't use it there but use it at the other website.

I signed up for this new website which will be offering storefronts (secure buy/sell via BIN/Best Offer). Its basically a myspace meets craigslist and ebay. Unlike other networking websites this one is really easy to use. I've been able to easily upload pics, videos etc. The best part is the buy/sell feature that will be up in 2 weeks. It is totally free.

I have managed to find a new site that is really taking off. www.ozbid.com.au They have no listing fees, you can relist your item as many times as you like free and they only charge commission on sold items. It was a bit slow in the start but in the last 2 weeks I have sold 9 items. Easy to list, plenty of customer service & I can't fault them. Try it out. Ozbid Online Auctions.

Love the name! easy to remember and fun to say....LOL...They also have no listing fees, free member stores and and eveything else the others offer. Made a few sales there and I am going to list on ALL of the free sites I can, I figure my items will get more exposure that way. Another one is Ziing.com .

I only sell higher end items there now instead of everything. eBay no longer has all my business. I have the MOST success with Craig's list as an alternative. CL is FREE with NO CLOSING fees. I have a lot of success with selling vehicles and collectibles on CL and can afford to list anything there with out fear of loss, I highly recommend it for selling. Set up a special email and account just for CL and check your mail 2x a day. Provide a phone number where you CAN be reached for the best success. I never had a problem with CL and get great returns for my efforts. I believe CL is eBay's biggest competitor in the USA, above all others....and STILL FREE. I hope it worries eBay and keeps competition real! I am a gold power seller on eBay, their fees are killing me and I really limit items I sell on their site BC of it.

They are the new ebay. Many smaller sites like this offer buyers far better deals than ebay ever could. Buyser also save a ton because this site charges little or nothing depending on the day. One more reaso I like elfingo.com is because they don't take a part of the sale at all. No commissions or final value fees.

They offer a good service, but their fees keep increasing. I feel like they are trying to trickle every single cent they can from their fees. I am trying to turn to other solutions but it is hard when the majority of users are still dependant on their website. I agree that ebay has slowly been going downhill for me.
