Hi Ken, I think you must have an eBay Store, because that is the only way fees could be that low. In that case, you have to pay a monthly "Store fee" to get that rate. If you are doing high volume, that makes sense.
http://pages.ebay.com/sellerinformation/stores/Subscriptions.html For the regular user, having a store doesn't make sense. Fees for regular folks are 10% on the final value of the auction price (more if you have a reserve price or other options). Plus, PayPal takes ~3% off the transaction off the top. Then, eBay takes 10% of the amount of shipping you charge, too (!). http://pages.ebay.com/help/sell/fees.html If a regular seller (not someone with a Store) can get away with not using PayPal, I'd love to know how. I'm not saying it can't be done -- but I guess I haven't figured that one out yet. ;-) -john NE4U On Fri, Feb 26, 2016 at 10:53 AM, Ken G Kopp <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi John! > > I have a 100% rating for about 200 transactions and AFIK, E-Bay's fee is a > bit less that 4% and PayPal use is not a condition of use. > > Virtually all of Rose's case and cover orders are paid via PayPal.
