Maybe it's just me

But recently I've found the fact that eBay charges you to list AND fleeces you on the final value fee is very rude.

Why do they need to fleece you on two fronts?

because they are capitolist pig dogs and have no competition so they can do anything they like....

Kinda like Wal-mart. A love-hate relationship.

Like Odie said, they have control. I don't think they should charge for listing but then there would be mega overflow of auctions. They make the big money on ending fees. Maybe we should start an auction site.

Wait, Wal-Mart. . . do they cheat you in some way I didn't know about? I definitely have a love/hate relationship with them, but are you talking about them cheating you out of $$ or something else?

no no! Sorry! They just have terrible business. At least here in Colorado. Long lines, bad manners, no help..etc.

Yeah, no kidding. . . I don't think that employees should have to be dressed to the teeth every day, but when I see workers wearing sweatpants. . .

They're probably not paid enough to afford anything else. Yay that we don't have WalMart in Oz yet.
