 "List and sell a high value item for $500 or more from 6 May to receive $30 off your next purchase on ebay.com.au"

 

I pay $$3.50 Insertion Fee, then 9.9% Final Value Fee which is $29.50, then 2.4% plus 0.30 for PayPal which is $12.30. If I have my maths right, the total in fees for me selling a $500 item is $45.30 - even more if the item sells higher. And they'll give me $30 off - wow!

 

And seeing as this generous promotion starts from May 6 (coincidence?) I'll also be paying an additional 9.9% on the postage!!

 

It has to be a joke, right?

Perhaps, but if I qualified I still wouldn't be knocking it back. $30 is still $30 whichever way you look at it.

 

Better in my pocket than ebay's. 😉
