In answer to Barry's comment on this thread, listing fees are as high as $4.80, obviously depending on the price of the item, much of what I list costs me $1.20 or more to list. At least there is no egregious buyers premium when I sell an item. I can remember the days when there was no buyers premium at the big auction houses.
As a semi/regular seller on ebay, with a 1000+ feedback, I am all in favor of lower listing fees. I never mind paying them a commission when an item sells (especially because there is no buyers premium).
I think it hurts me financially when those listing fees start to pile up on the unsold items.
