I don't like the commission

It's the way Ebay works. There are no guarantee you are going to be successful you take a chance if someone wants your product they buy it. If no one purchase your product, relist it. I have listed items on Ebay with no sale, and I relist and it sells sometimes it does not. I just look at it as part of business.

What can you do? you can't ask for your money back thats like asking a laundrette for your money back after they have washed your cloths, you may want to look at your sales tecnique, look at the way you present your listing, also take a look in the completed listing to see if the item you are selling is actually selling at all anyway, then you will know if it is worth relisting it or not. If you didn't put a picture of the item in the first time that would be a good thing to add also try to be as honest as you can be about the item, if it has marks, scratches, dints, etc etc these all help to show buyers you are being honest about the item and it will stop you getting any repocussions after the buyer has recieved the item and them doing a chargeback with paypal and you loosing even more money. On ebay your not guarenteed to sell an item you put up it all depends on the demand for that particular product, plus if the market is full of them and you start your auction with a high starting bid you will probably not get any bidders. i hope that might help a little for you.

I'm very new to eBay, so I'm probably not the one to answer, but I also put something up for sale and it didn't sell either and I lost a little $..... I just put it back up for auction and it sold the 2nd time around....... Good luck with yours!
