hi..can some one please tell me how come ebay is charging me shipping fees on sales that i cancelled once I realised their policy had changed to do that..it wasnt worth it to me to sell my clothes or shoes or hand made cloth dolls on here once I realised they had decided to get so greedy I tried to keep my prices down as I knew the costs of postage was put on the buyers..like it used ot be in the first years I was on here selling things..but when I saw the postal fees were put on us as well..well it wouldnt be worth it to me..I didnt see the changes until Id posted a heap of stuff on here ..and frankly .Id end up with next to nothing for my trouble so I cancelled the things id put on for auction and sale..yet they are still charging me over $14 for fees for shipping or something like that?? Im not a business person ..Im a simple stay at homme mum trying to make some pocket money for myself..its bloody cheeky if you ask me..I will never again deal with ebay and will warn all my mates and family as well..this doesnt seem fair or right to still take shipping fees on things Im not selling..Im going to take it up with fair trading I think to see if its right or not? can anyone explain to me why or how they can still take these shipping fees on cancelled auctions and sales..when Im not shipping a darned thing??

Ebay do not charge FVF on unsold items, if you have charges, they would only be for any listing and/or FVF fees for items you sold before you cancelled your listings. If you go to your My Ebay page and click the Account tab, you can see a list of all charges levied for the last period, that will clarify exactly what you have been charged for.

looks like you listed a lot more than the 40 free listings-- so you would have hd to pay some Listing Fees
you sold at least 3 items, so you would have had to pay final value fees and shipping value fees on those Sales.
ignorane of the rules is not an excuse to not work by them.

You will have been charged for the items you had already sold.
Check your eBay invoice and that will give you the breakdown for the various charges.
If you still beleive you have been overcharged you need to ring eBay to sort it out, not much we can do to help sorry.
...and what putney said LOL

Most of your items post for $8.25 so adding ten cents to item cost or knocking ten cents off the packaging and handling part of the postage would more than cover the extra, if your profit margin was that tight I can't imagine why you would waste time selling anyway.
