My experience with FB groups is being lowballed. I?ll still use eBay regardless of fees. There are many more potential customers than a couple thousand on a BST FB group.

So, who wants to help me make poorly worded signs on neon poster board this weekend?
It's a moot point. Buyers on other sites with no fees automatically expect your sale price to be minus Ebay fees. PLUS there seems to be some sort of expectation of a "bro discount" just because you are in the same collector FB groups.

Keith!

I haven't sold anything on eBay in a while... Like Zer0 pointed out, I worry eBay will side with a buyer no matter what... the last time I tried to sell, I was hit by a guy who was switching statues. Got me so rattled, I haven't sold a piece in six years.

In fairness, I used stock photos on that listing so that was on me. Back then, I was able to track the guy down and talk to him on the phone... I don't think eBay gives us any visibility like that nowadays.
