Has anyone noticed they not only change 5% but now there is also a processing fee?

And have no customer service? And will side with the buyer every time even though they basically admit they are scamming?
 
I looked at my old statements from past sales before the change and there was ways the 3.5% but not a processing fee as well.guess you truly have to pay now if you want to sell your stuff.

The only stuff I’ve really been able to sell off reverb really is rare, special stuff like Cameron or Monomyth’s. Everything else through reverb and a few on eBay, but that has imo just as many bad things about it from my experience
 
There's always Ebay or your local Craigslist. :ROFLMAO:

I've only been using it for two years and I can't complain.
 
I just sold a pedal and you’re right it’s gone up they took an unbelievable cut

I typically post stuff on craigslist or Facebook marketplace and if it doesnt sell it always sells on reverb.....Craigslist is really starting to fade into obscurity and Facebook is full of lowballers....seems like its tougher to sell now than 10 to 15 years ago online ....which is strange because their are so many advancements with online applications now

Yes exactly this is why I mostly only have any luck on reverb. You reach a bigger audience. Craigslist hasn’t gotten me much interest in my stuff and the only stuff that’s gotten a lot of interest for me on those Facebook groups is the Cameron stuff because the guys on Groomed Noodlers jizz their pants over anything Cameron related or a guitar with Koa (way overly trendy imo as a tonewood, but still nice)

Reverb gets 5% and the electronic payment processing fee is 3%. Nothing new, eBay used to be 10% and 3% pal pal fee.

I wish there was another option to reverb or eBay, but selling on the forums for the most part the gear just doesn’t move, even priced well.

It is what it is. All my shit sells on EBay and Reverb, unlike here. Bunch of lowballers and tire kickers here, anymore.
