It makes perfect sense when you see one person filling up 25% of the B&S listing 25-30 complete shit domains in separate threads. A fee would stop, or cut down, on this behavior.
Besides, you are missing the bigger point. If the domain is
actually worth anything greater than the reg. fee. Then a fee to list is a 'cost of doing business'.
I wouldn't mind paying a listing fee personally if it helps clean up the section. On some of the mainstream sites for bigger ticket items you have to pay as it is now, so I am used to it.
After all, the recent GFY attempt with new rules and adding mods is to make this more about doing business, and catering to those actually in this business. So the 'cost of doing business' is simply how the game is played.

A fee is a fee. If the site or domain is
worth anything. People pay the fee. Simple as that.
