Sellers at last year's eBay Open UK event reported confusion and poor planning for food and drink needs as well as heated questions from business sellers in fashion categories concerned about increased competition from private sellers who were no longer being charged Final Value Fees.

Those questions will be even more pressing this year as the UK site has undergone massive changes, further differentiating business and private sellers, expanding fee-free selling to private sellers in most categories, and introducing a Buyer Protection Fee and mandatory use of Simple Delivery for private sales as well.
But the largest point of contention will likely be the Promoted Listings advertising attribution changes going into effect next week which will massively expand the number of sales which will incur ad fees.
