Ebay Sellers Up In Arms

It's still very busy here. That convergence of due dates should ease up today, provided I complete all of my tasks, or at least look like I did. >^;^<

I took a chill pill after working on software for a few hours, and looked at my ebay account. I've had an account there for ten years which I just cancelled. The paypal account is going next. The reason I am cancelling after so many years is due to the changes ebay is making in their fee structure and in the buyer feedback system. After routinely forking out over $400 a month in fees, only to clear about a thousand dollars a month, I am voting on the new policies with my feet. As soon as I get to a quiet point with my software project, I will work on my new website to sell handcrafted jewelry and doll sized miniatures. I'm sure I can live without that tiny bit of money from ebay. Gee thanks, Meg! I needed that! The final and last straw that would get me to quit the beast!
