I stopped selling on ebay in 2005 and since then have only sold online via my site or Facebook posts (done lots of money by facebook)

When I sell on my own site, I have no fees other than paypal.


I couldn't be happier. Of course, I've had a serious internet presence since my first website in 1994 ( www.comic-art.com ) and so I was already positioned right to be able to go my own way.

Yes, ebay changed it's system back in August.  If you want to sell on ebay in the U.S., you have to now be a part of their managed payment plan.  They told me they are systamatically going to that system for every country in the world within the next two years.    So, the buyer's fund for your item no longer go to Paypal, the go to ebay and ebay keeps the funds for 3 days before they send it directly to your bank account which takes another 3 days.  The percentage of what they take went up a bit and they take their fees on the item price + sales tax + shipping. So, if you sold an item for $100 and the sale tax was $9 and the shipping was $15, you are going to pay fees on $124.  I talked to someone at ebay and asked "how can you charge me fees on the sales tax that I never see".
I was basically told, that's the way it is.

So, that's the scoop.

Creative accounting at its best. It’s like charging a fee on postage costs.

Hi all,

As life rolls on, I have decided to start giving away / throwing away / consigning / selling on eeekbay whatever I own ... that my wife and daughter are not interested in collecting / keeping, (which just happens to be damn near everything).

I looked into the transaction details on some items previously sold. I noticed what appears to be some accounting errors, so natch, I contacted and found out:

When a buyer pays for an item sold on eeekbay, they are (most likely) charged a local tax to be paid by the buyer, and that tax is also added to the final value of the item, and then the seller is charged whatever percentage fee on the added final value fee.

Creative accounting?

New math?

Thoughts?
