To me, the extra fees and 24hr requirement makes some sense. They are going to be overwhelmed with potential buyers. The fees are in part to discourage people that aren't serious and part to recover the costs of supporting the huge crowd.

I'm not saying that I agree with all the charges, but that may be a resonable explanation for some of them.
