As a seller, eBay fees can feel rough at times, but the exposure your items are getting there is unmatched. Most of the vintage I put on ebay will sell eventually at fixed prices or through negotiation, even when certain things I run in Facebook or other groups, etc. - does not.

As a buyer - I don't see many, if any downsides to eBay. World's largest card shop / show that is open 24-7. Multiple buying formats from BIN's to offers, to old school auctions, pick your poison. For what is usually very reasonable or sometimes no shipping fees, whatever you bought often show up on your doorstep less than a week later. What's not to love?

The authentication aspect of it for items over a certain dollar amount I will admit is a PITA, especially for the buyer - but this is the world we live in in modern times when eBay as a platform cannot trust people to send buyers what they actually bought without swapping out cards, or faking something and ultimately making them (eBay) liable. I don't like it, but I do get it. People suck sometimes.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
