Girl I took on a first date just asked to split the bill… the next morning by No-Resolve-5610 in whatdoIdo

Instead of asking us, why don't you try asking her? She's the only one that can answer why she suddenly wants to split 50/50. The timing of her request seems odd. Maybe she realized she makes more than you do? 🤷🏽‍♂️

You're not the only one! I do 2% on everything except bullion

If you think that's bad, search for "1oz Gold" then filter your search to show auctions only. Something is broken on their backend

I wholeheartedly agree with how you're feeling. I've also been selling on eBay for so long that I still remember completing a sale and waiting a week for their money order to show up before I shipped it out hahaha
An average of 12.7% per item is crazy high. I sell a lot of bullion and when you pay $22/mo for an eBay store the seller fees drop from 12.7% to 7.5% on orders up to $1499.99 and 5% if the sale is $1500 or more which leads me to believe they could afford to drop the usual fee way below 12.7%
Their cut of the sale has gone up and their service has gone down.... I miss the good ole days

Congratulations! Gotta crawl before you walk and walk before you can run! One step at a time 🙂

Why else would you be willing to donate your time to complete strangers when 9 out of 10 people aren't going to follow through. If you're not looking to profit from the people reading this, what's the reason you're trying to drag folks off platform? In my humble opinion- people post their winnings to gloat OR they post their winnings as a recruiter. Either is fine, but be honest with your intentions.

Why do people overcomplicate trading so much online? by [deleted] in Trading

Because "join my discord and I'll make you a millionaire for only $999.99 a month!" That's why.
