Daniel @Danielclark691 (1260) 2 Feb

Kallula The changes could frustrate private sellers, especially with the new fee structure and delayed payments. While business sellers may benefit, it will be interesting to see how buyers react to the new pricing. Overall, it might shift how people sell on eBay.
