Looks like someone in eBay is doing a "Madeoff":
December "New fees": $14.55
Line Item actual amount: $14.43 (1%)
November "New Fees" = $24.56
Line Item actual amount: $24.31 (1%)
Ebay customer support agrees there is a
computer error, has existed since 2004!
So this particular scam: SIX YEARS!
Grocers do the MADEOFF:
1 gallon milk: $3.98
half gallon: $1.98 (cheaper to buy 2 of these!)
By being a businessman: I do the Madeoff everyday!

An irritably sarcastic term for someone who spends foolishly/wastefully (money burns a hole in his pocket), habitually fails to repay loans (he made off with the money and nobody ever saw it again), or is otherwise irresponsible with money to a major degree.
Dude #1: I was asked for a loan of ten bucks by Jack Smith; I wondered what you thought of his reliability in paying it back.
Dude#2: Jack Smith?! No way, Buddy --- you don't wanna give **anything** to that moochin' jerk --- he's just a Burnie Madeoff!
