I just got an email that Fleabay is discontinuing the measly 1% Fleabay Bucks that they have been offering on most purchases. Really? They are getting windfall business profits from the pandemic on-line shopping so I guess they feel no need to offer incentives to buy from them. The 6%, 8%, and 10% three-day incentives have been missing for almost a year now. All you may get occasionally is a puny 5% which doesn't even cover the sales tax. Don't even get me started on the insane fees they charge sellers. Which gets passed right on to the buyers. They even tax shipping. No one else does that. I no longer shop for everyday things since Wallmart, Home Depot, Lowes, and others are all offering better prices as well as free shipping on tons of things. And I get a 10% Veteran's discount from Lowes so they get my attention first anyway. I will be relegating Fleabay to hard-to-find and oddball things that I can't find anywhere else. Which is what they were usefull for in the first place. But I notice even Amazon is letting third-party sellers sell odd stuff that you used to see only on Fleabay. I just hope that once this virus mess is over and we can get back to swap meets and flea markets, Fleabay will wake up and realize they shot themselves in the foot. Again.
