How These Changes Will Affect Sellers

By lowering insertion fees to 35 cents for up to 30 days, sellers of fixed-price items can now list an item for about a penny a day. This means we’re virtually eliminating the up-front risk to list an item at fixed price on eBay – it’s the most competitive pricing we’ve ever offered sellers.
Changing the listing duration for fixed-price items from seven days to 30 will save sellers time and money. See specific examples of ways sellers will benefit.
The changes we’re making to streamline the shopping experience and improve search will speed the shopping experience for buyers, which then benefits sellers through increased traffic and volume of buying activity.
With the new shipping charge limits in the media category (books, video games, music, movies/DVDs), sellers will need to offer at least one shipping option within the specified limit or use the shipping calculator. In addition, we will be rewarding sellers who provide free shipping.
To provide a faster, more reliable checkout experience, eBay will no longer permit paper forms of payment such as checks and money orders on eBay.com. This change will benefit sellers, making payments faster and more reliable.
