Quickly reviewing this, I think people who sell lower end items under $40 are going to be hit the most. For instance a person selling a $9.99 item and charging $10 postage will now be paying a final value on $20 and that will almost double their Ebay expense with very little off-set by the decrease in insertion fees.
Anyway you look at it however, Ebay is doing this to maximize THEIR revenue, not the seller's.

It is true that they will be charging a fee on postage. They are attempting to rationalise this extraordinary greed by saying that the "New fees reward low shipping". http://pages.ebay.com/sellerinformation/news/feeupdate2011.html#faq I would be interested to hear what other sellers think about all of this. Are there any benefits in maintaining an eBay store?
