A Series of Unfortunate Events - Or - The Straw That Broke The Camel's Back

A Series of Unfortunate Events - Or - The Straw That Broke The Camel's Back

By ArmFarm | Murchison Farm | 13 Sep 2021


What an afternoon! I want to preface this post by saying that I am extremely grateful for all my many blessings! I don't consider myself a whiner, or one to constantly complain.

With that being said, i have to get some things off my chest. This will be my little rant to my Pub0x Community Family.

I will start by saying that I have been composing my post, for tonight, throughout much of the afternoon. I finally finished it, and wanted to upload a photo from my phone. It used to be very simple. I could compose on my computer, and then log onto Pub0x with my phone to upload photos.

There are a number of people, who are not so very nice. I am guessing that at some point, someone figured a way to abuse the system. Now Pub0x will log me out of the computer, if I log onto the phone - or log me out of the phone, if I log onto the computer. 

I don't know if it is a glitch in the system, or what, but i pulled up my post and uploaded my photo. I had the photo all right - but my post had completely disappeared along with the title. All I have to show is a blank post with a photo. POOF - IT WAS GONE!!! LOL

Of course it didn't stop there. I also created some new listings for our eBay account. I have a script that i include in my listings that share a few links to sites, such as Pub0x, Coinbase, RollerCoin, etc = All Legitimate Sites! I have seen other people add similar things in their item descriptions, so I did not think i would be doing anything wrong. After all that is where i received the link for Rakuten - which has turned out to be a scam. 

When I went to look at the item description, of one of my new listings, instead of my links - there is the text Removed by eBay. That was the straw which broke that Camel's back. If you read 'my previous posts about problems with Ebay, you will already understand. It is as if they are trying to Crush the small businesses and individuals who are trying to sell on their site! To begin with, the charge right at 20% in selling fees. To add insult to injury they also add 20% of the shipping charges, and 20% of the Sales Tax to those selling fees! And, it doesn't stop there - They have announced that their seller fees will increase another .2% staring next year! 

That is it for me. I have listed my last item with Ebay. It has become obvious, to me at least, they are part of plot to enslave the general public. You supply all of the products, and all of the work - while they reap the benefits. Their 20% Fee is not of your profit, but of your entire Sale. I know of people so desperate that they are selling for a loss on eBay. I refuse to be their beast of burden! 

Tomorrow, I will begin serious preparations to start listing my items on Amazon. If all goes well there, i will begin moving my inventory from eBay.
