eBay has been making enormous changes to the site this year, and it may all be leading to a fundamental change in how eBay charges sellers for listing on its site. All signs point to eBay moving to a free-listings/higher commission-based model - the question is, will it make the move all at once, or roll out category-based pricing?

Here are some questions that come to mind:

If eBay did eliminate listing fees and raise Final Value Fees, would that make a FVF based on the entire transaction, including shipping and handling, more palatable to you?

When will eBay roll out a more restrictive Accepted Payments policy banning checks and money orders?

Will eBay be more aggressive with contextual advertising on the site if sellers are not paying listing fees?

Today's AuctionBytes Newsflash article has more on some of the implications of such a move.
