Adverts.ie - Changed Fee Structure Again. Charges to List + 3.5% of Sale Price.

I'm surprised there isn't a discussion of the new price structure on adverts.ie.

Can't say I agree with it, ie both listing fees and a final value fee.

Should be one or the other in my view

Listing fees

Items priced under €25: €0.25 cents.
Items priced over €25: €0.75 cents.

Success fees

When you make a sale on Adverts.ie, you will be charged 3.5% of the total sale price.
If you sell an item for €10, you will be charged €0.35 cents.
Paying Fees

You will be billed monthly and can pay this via PayPal, bank transfer or cheque. Invoices must be paid within 30 days or else your account will be temporarily suspending pending payment.
Fees FAQ

1. If I withdraw an item will the listing fee be refunded?
   No, the listing fee is non refundable.
2. Does the stock amount on an ad affect the listing price?
   No, you can have up to 100 stock items in one ad placement.
3. Does the success fee apply to the shipping cost on my ad?
   No, the 3.5% success fee is charged based on the item price only.
4. Do I need to have a PayPal account to register a Shop account?
   Yes, for now, we can only allow shops with a PayPal account.
5. If a transaction is cancelled by the customer, is the 3.5% fee refundable?
   Yes. See below on how to request a refund. What happens if I change my item price from below €25 to above?
   You will receive an additional 50c charge to the 25c originally charged on your bill as you have increased the ad price to the higher bracket.
6. Is there a cap on the success fee?
   Yes. The success fee is capped at €50.

Judgement Day

I just logged into Adverts and I see no mention of any changes.

I'd say the previous structure backfired on the genius that came up with it and they're trying to fix it.

This can work ......You can't expect it all for free nowadays .

The fees sound similar to Paypal fees , and are way better than eBay 10% of final value .

LOL!

I was about to list something and put adverts.ie fees into Google and this was the first link I got, so I though they must have changed after all the furor.
