They take too much, you have ZERO protection from scammers and deadbeat buyers these days and you pretty much must use PayPal as the form of payment.

I gave up selling on eBay, years ago. Do yourself a favor and try Facebook marketplace instead.

Has anyone fired up a real competitor to ebay? I guess Amazon is sort of one, but isn't an auction site.

Mostly computer parts. Some older some fairly new. The older stuff I know I won't get a lot for to start with so trying on ebay may not be worth it. The newer stuff still seems to be doing ok price wise but if I can't actually get the prices they seem to be selling for, again it will probably not be worth the effort.

As far as grouping things, nothing really could be. Basically I have enough older stuff to build a couple more or less complete systems, but nothing that really seems to be sought after these days.

WTF give a run here, we all have computers, someone may need just the part you have.
Hell, you could get a hell of a deal on big breasted bras here! ( . )( . ) sorry, the bras do NOT come filled.
You may have things someone here needs.

Be aware that there are scammers who will receive an item and then say it's defective or not working correctly, etc.

eBay will side with them and you will get screwed.
