"So if you have a slow month, they will punish you with higher fees."
I don't even know what that is Helmut. I don't believe I have seen such
an effect on my transactions.
I wonder if that doesn't affect the USA?

It's still a darn shame, as ebay used to be such a great place for
both buyers and sellers. That was a LONG time ago, of course. Now it's
nothing but another money grabbing scheme for the empty suits and
their bottomless corporate greed. And yes, the ebay bank seems the
next logical step.
As to Paypal: Like ebay, they also manage to find new ways to reach
deeper in our pockets. Their last 'improvement' now has the commission
based on previous month's turnaround. So if you have a slow month,
they will punish you with higher fees.

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?
