Default Tired of EPAY

I’m really getting tired of all the fees and crap connected with selling on epay.

In order to cover the costs of “doing business” I have to push my prices so high that no one can afford to buy anything.

Ebay fees are one thing, but now (to the best of my knowledge) sellers are required to accept some form of electronic payment (primarily Pay Pal) then Pay Pal (who is owned by ebay) takes their cut, 3.9% I think, and that's not only on what you sell but they take the same percentage on shipping fees as well. By the time it's all said and done, ebay ends up with more than $10.00 on a $100.00 sale, and I think that is too much.

Is there anywhere else that reaches a lot of people, that doesn’t have so many fees, and that doesn’t “make” me use Pay Pal or another form of payment that eats up all of the profit?

Where else do you guys buy and sell stuff?
