For many, enough is enough.
Change doesn’t come readily to many. What’s good for some, may not be good for all. At this point, I see change as change. It’s going to happen. I try not to put a value on it and just “roll with it.”
The last few weeks we’ve received dozens and dozens (I think the last count was 130) of responses about eBay’s last round of changes – most significantly the new paperless payment policy.
For those of you who have decided this is the last straw, so to speak, you may find this helpful. Click on the link below for buying and selling options other than eBay.
17 Alternatives to Buying and Selling on Ebay
Personally, if I were a regular seller, I would prefer a flat-rate monthly fee. Of course, the best option would depend upon the volume of my sales.
Do any of you have any experience with these eBay alternatives? Please post a reply here and share your experience with other readers.
Thanks.

I know of several artists who have moved to Etsy, but with higher priced items to offer, this is not a real option. Sales from websites in this climate, with the stock market jumping and falling at every political comment, are dire. This may end up being an artless era (pun intended).
To make matters worse, AOL is plunging into darkness every site built on their pages on October 31st. Nasty Halloween surprise.
