    They’re also changing the way you get money after someone buys something.

    eBay balance, apparently. So by default, when a transaction happens, the money stays in eBay, and you have to manually transfer it out, instead of scheduled timed payouts.

      So I’ve heard they have already switched eBay in Germany to this no-fee system. It proved more profitable for eBay because private sellers who accrue an eBay balance from sales were in turn more likely to spend it on eBay.
