I'm sure ebay gets a chunk of each and every package processed through their site.....just like Stamps.com. When/If they need to extract a little more to prop up Wall Street expectations, it'll be passed along even further. Dropped about 60 packages at Post Office today for scanning and my window person said she just saw it this morning. Said they normally get much advanced notice about it but there wasn't anything that she'd seen. And she's really good too. SO......I agree with the sentiment that they're driving people to more electronic means for posting. Which I'm fine with because I use ebay's shipping API all the time anyway. I'll take any/every discount I can get. The discount is pretty strong on 13-14-15 ounce packages that are close to/over the Priority mandate. Couple bucks in some instances for low weight Priority packages depending on the destination distance. Time to go to $3.50 minimum shipping from $3.00.
