I am on my blackberry and can't find it. I need to get mÝ ebay store closed in time and have my 100 "free" listing auctions ready to go.

Thanks all!

Ebay fees are getting out of hand. I'm trying to sell off as much stuff as possible before the fees hike.

I was calculating the final value fees for a $200 card, now vs the new fees, and it's $11 now, and it will soon be $18, but you will save the $.15 listing fee so I guess it's all good. ::facepalm::

If you upgraded your store, your listing feels already went up to .05. Found that out the other day.

You're calculating the fees wrong I think. It's only 9% on the first $25, then 3.5% on the remaining. Right now a card that you list at .99 cents that sells for $200 has a FV fee of $8.46. Not sure what the new rates are going to be. I know it's going from 8.75% to 9% on the first $25, but not sure what the percentage is after $25.

Actually, I was curious to see what the new fv fees were.

From 8.75% to 9% if I'm reading it right. Also, it was 8.75% on the first $25, but now it's 9% with a $50 cap.

Actually, I was curious to see what the new fv fees were. WOW!!

From 8.75% to 12% if I'm reading it right. Also, it was 8.75% on the first $25, but now it's 12% on the first $50. Not only are they shoving it, but there not even being nice about it.

I was going to consider listing 100 auctions to see how I'd do, but I might just try to sell offline instead or at shows for near ebay prices.

Edit: Still researching this. I may have used the final value fee on fixed price listings.

FVF's for auctions are going to be a straight 9% with a cap at $50, up from 8.75% for the first $25 and 3.5% for the next $949.99.

Just saw that. Most of what I'll be listing will be small dollar stuff anyways that probably won't sell for $25+.Only an increase of .25% but free listing probably evens it out.
