Check to see if you have 'Automatic Offers' enabled.

They'll be sent to buyers who look at your items and / or those who have your items on their watch list

How much are you being paid?

That would determine whether or not the discount is coming out of your funds.

I reiterate -

hi ok this is yesterdays sale for example,item advertised at $79 but the buyer paid $63.20.Then i looked at the fees and i got charged a further $8.77 so my total take home amount was $54.43.

it sounds like i need to jack up the price to cover my loss

I presume it's this item.

"Kawasaki Ultra 300/310 Supercharger Belt Jet Ski OEM Replacement 6PK845"

Did the buyer buy just the one item ?

Have a look at how you've set up your discount.

That item shows Save up to 15% when you buy more

On the listing page , it also shows Take AU $3.95 off this item with eBay Plus.

If you take 15% off the item then take another $3.95 off, it comes down to $63.20

Maybe forget my last post because when you first posted this thread, I put a few of your items on my watch list.

I just 'looked' at the others

Just now , I received five offers from you , all offering 20% off those items

Revise your items to ‘don’t accept offers’

Scroll down the page until you see

Automatically Send Offers, then go to
