dodging ebay fees?

[joe billionaire]

so i sold some stuff...a lot of stuff was small time but ive sold some sneakers and seen it would be almost 20$ per shoe...

so is there anyway to put the fees off until later?

when they send me the selling invoice with my fees will they take the charges out of my account asap? or will i have to decide when to pay

i have a paypal card and i took my bank account off of it as the second form of payment but i still my bank account so i can transfer the funds from my paypalto my bank...are they just going to grab it anyway?

I had my actual ebay account linked to my debit card, and I lost my debit card. Therefore I cancelled it, which inadvertently caused my ebay fees not to bepaid, since the card they had on file was cancelled. They didn't reach into my bank acount via paypal or anything. I can't sell again though until Ipay those ebay fees, but I got away with not dropping 50 bucks for the time being!!!

Once you ship out the item, and he receives it, request to cancel it and it takes back the fees.. (and and you can still leave/receive feedback)

The fees are ridiculous now, I stopped selling because of it.

If you do that too many times I think they'll start to catch on.

it's called circumventing fees. got caught long time ago. had to take a test to get reinstated. not sure if the policies are the same now.
