When online auction providers charge fees that are two or three times the amount of the average credit card fee it puts the burden on someone. The question is how to remain profitable. Charge the seller more? Charge the live bidder more? Charge everyone more? someone has to pay, and you have to live to sell another day. My two cents, Robert The problem is that the fee is not as low a credit card fee.
