Guys, I just want to sell some stuff to make some money on the side, not do huge volume amazon FBA or start a shopify store or something like that.

Just here and there, and the fees are outrageous, almost 15% on final cost of item INCLUDING SHIPPING?

so if i buy something that costs 65 dollars and try to sell it for 85 to make 20 bucks, that's 14 dollars of fees given to ebay.

In some instances you can even end up OWING money buy selling something on their platform what the fuck? the margin you have to have will make your item unsellable in many cases.

are there other platforms that don't fuck their users as much? it seems amazon and walmart are even worse.
