eBay Netherlands cut Store FVFs

Having waded my way through the UK and US multi-page fee change notices yesterday, I have a certain amount of affection for the brevity of the Dutch today. In essence:
eBay Netherlands has been and remains cheap in comparison with other eBay sites, and for this reason we are not changing our insertion or final value fees. However, it has been decided to reduce the final value fees for eBay Stores. From 20th February, you will pay 6% of the sale price up to a maximum of €10.

Bless. Related, I suspect, to the fect that eBay’s premier Ducth property isn’t eBay.nl but rather http://www.marktplaats.nl/

Is that really eBay’s, Dan? What a hideous-looking site!

Hideous it may be BUT it works. NL is a fascinating example of where a traditional eBay Marketplace didn’t dominate the market. eBay ended up buying and developing the competitor that was beating it: a clasifieds site.

Interesting… I’m just worried because that was the pukey colour Mountie’s listings used to be, and I had to nag for ages to get him to change it. FFS don’t let him see it and think that sick-peach works after all
