GST and Ebay Fees not clear - Confused please help clarify

[garthj85]

Hello,

I am confused by the Fees as the Docs are certainly not clear on this matter.

Are they saying there are Ebay fees of 9%  PLUS GST of 10%   ?

So for clarity, if I have sold an item for $325 with Local pickup, and Insertion was Free, what are the Total fees I will be paying ?

thanks

Your listing states that it was $30 postage.    You'll pay 10% on that.

Total fees - $35.15+ Paypal fees

If it's for pick up then send an invoice to the buyer with local pickup and no postage so then you only pay 9.9% selling fees

otherwise like stawka said you will pay it on the postage

Didn't the Selling Fees increase to 10.9%?

10.9% which includes the GST

You pay 10% on the FEE not the item. So 9.9% of  $325 = $32.17 -(Your ebay fee  

10%gst on $32.17 = $3.20   so you fee would $35.37

GST on $32.17 is $3.22

The only problem I have with this is the gst on the postage FVF.

We pay gst on postage as we buy it from AP (or a courier co).

We all know the eBay postage FVF is a gouge and now the Feds want to load a bit on top.

The postage FVF does not constitute a service as eBay provides absolutely NO service here.

If you buy a postge label via eBay, they have already paid gst to AP.

There's no gst on the postage component - ebay have stated this

Just on the fee????

Can you elaborate a bit more stawks ?

For those that are still confused
