I am using ebay since 15-20 years and I had some issues too (around 1-2% of my total sales...)
Unfortunately they are the biggest / most visited place for selling collectible stuff (at least here in Italy). It's also very easy and quick Sad
Even if I tried other options (like delcampe or catawiki) no one has been able to have the same visibility / fees.
Auction houses most of the times have a lot of restrictions and become useless for items not expensive ...
Obtorto collo https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/obtorto_collo I haven't changed their service Sad

@Eclipse33 - before you get banned you have received some communications by them or at least some sale closed...did you want to share what happens?

Been using delcampe a lot, though since the change with DAC7 it has gone backwards imo... forcing the use PayPal or their own payment service, this dropped my sales significantly.

In delcampe I have just 10-15 lots no more, actually they can't compete... Ebay drives many traffic even on specialized items that has just few estimators.
Same items in delcampe doens't get sold even if heavy discounted. This is an issue because I hate ebay with their ridicolous approach to the site.
Regarding DAC7 , I was not aware of the change and I am still sending a private message with details for direct payment Roll Eyes

By the way, I had just few issues with ebay, but each time it's like impossible talk with a real person that understand 1% of what he is doing on that role or the terms of the company he is working for. At least in a couple of cases they have not applied their rules in a controversy... only copy&paste answers completely non sense.
