Another reason for avoiding eBay labels how difficult it is to total and reconcile Managed Payments fee and sales amounts. Only net amounts are totaled.

I can think of 2 reasons right off the top of my head:

1 – Ebay continuing to take care of China as that was and still is the future of Ebay, especially when discussing things with Devin Wenig!!! All he could think about was how could Ebay help the poor uneducated Chinese people the most while continuing to cause US Sellers to pay for it. Remember the Universal Postal Union is the group that set Chinas International Postage rates in line with what Ghana would pay to ship something to the US as they were still considered a 3rd world country when it came to their economy.

2 – USPS needed somebody to make up the difference that they were losing on each of those E-packets since they were charged with not losing money. Even though the rules changed in July I never did see any kind of announcement from DeJoy that they had raised Chinas mailing prices to at least what we had to pay to return anything.

It is really going to be interesting to see how long Ebays relationship with China will last now that they are forcing Mangled Payments down their throats as they are with us. I cannot imagine the Chinese government will accept the late or slow payments that Ebay has shown can and will happen to Sellers so they can have a couple of extra days interest on the approximately $250 million of daily sales. It may not sound like a lot of money, but you better believe it adds up and Ebay knows every trick in the book when it comes to excuses to keep your money in their pockets.
