Auctions @ Re 1 with high Delivery charges and Mutiple listings

[ristcomputers]

Hi,

The People at Ebay should realise the concerns raised by lot of buyers here about items listed at Re 1 with high delivery charges.

We know Ebay cannot control sellers from listing their own items at their price but incase Ebay starts charging insertion fee as done in the core site we would have a clean site with quality listings and menace of Multiple listings would end.

This is the interest of the community if implemented.

The fear of Ebay staff on insertion fee is that the number of sellers would decrease and no listings would also come down is not correct.

The example that the no of listings would not go down is best exhibited by one other online Indian site.

Your suggestion is good.
Can anyone give me a single example out of so many listings on ebay under Re 1 auction,where total cost of the product at market price is lower than shipping charge + Re 1/-. In other words there is no auction in true terms, its a plain sale, perhaps at a higher price than market price.
And then sellers are complaining that there are no buyers !
