For those of you that are tired of hearing about the online auctions I exxpress my apologies. For those of you that use eBay to sell I need to express a little concern about their fee system so that you can watch your accounts. Seems I've had three items in the $25 to $1000 range sell and should have seen a 2.5% fee added as a "final value fee". Well an example is an item that sold for $242.50 at close. The fee listed is $6.69 rather than the 6.06 that 4 of my calculators ran up. I'm not an accountant but I know how to do percentages. The fee of 5% for items under $25 come up fine. I had two printers sell today and they are also wrong. One sold for $41.00 and has a fee of $1.65 rather than the 2.5% fee of $1.03 and the other sold at $31.27 with fee listed as $1.41 instead of the 2,5% fee of 78 cents. I've written eBay support but don't expect an answer until Monday. My whole point of this is to go back and check the fees on your items! You might very well be getting ripped without knowing it. Sure I'm only screwed on a buck or two but eBay is making out when you consider the volume sold every day. If 1000 items closed daily and each seller was overcharged 25 cents they'd have $250 more than they were supposed to. You get my point I hope and will now have the foreskin, er, foresight to check the account detail and their math. Thanks for the time in listening to my babble.
