Ebay is screwing people selling digital items

In case you missed it, another new eBay policy went into effect yesterday.

Gone are the days of selling digital download items on eBay. And that really sucks for me. I was making around $150 a month in total passive income selling a digital download item for $4.99.

The new eBay policy no longer allows digital download items in auction listings. Instead, all digital download items have to be listed in a 30-day classified listing. The listing fee for that is $9.95!!!! That is outrageous!

That means no more selling digital items on eBay for this gringo. Sure, it is only around $150 a month, but it still hurts.

More info on the new policy is here.

  The goal? 1,000,000 Mexican Pesos.
  Current exchange rate as of 4/15/08 is 1.00 MXN = 0.10 USD.
