Pretty much. It will be hilairous seeing how high ebay fees will be in five years from now.
The bullshit thing about ebay now is that they are trying to be an escrow company. My best friend just started selling on ebay and he is getting pissed because when people pay for their items ebay/paypal now holds the funds until the buyer receives their item. The part he's pissed about is that they don't even give you the shipping funds, you need to ship with your own money just to get money. He sold about 10 items and shipping total was around $75 since some stuff was a stereo and movies and games.
I went to his house and the new "guidelines" are:
At least 25 sale transactions
At least $250 in sales
At least 90 days from account opening
Once you meet all 3 then you get your money faster. Wow, I'm so glad I still have my original account from 2000.
