How come that ebay Australia charges 10.9% on sales, when Europe & America charge 10%?
How come that ebay Australia charges fees on postage when the others don't?
How come the ebay Australia has only 40 free listings per month when USA has 100, France has 150, Germany has 500 and UK has 1000???

No trading on ebay until next month. Most of my stuff sells for $5 including postage and after fees and postage I have about $2 I actually got, so paying $1.65 per listing is out of the question. Fun fact: In Europe it costs only 50 cents (At least in France) but that is out of the question, too.
Hope you get managed payments soon then!

OK. I didn't know those ones above.
So, if I get this right, once I am managed I get 250 free listings per month?

250,000!!
Managed payments gives 250,000 free listings, and the counters no longer move.
Read our full terms for fees when listing an item
All sellers with an Australian registration address are entitled to 250,000 free insertion fees per month for items listed in auction-style or fixed price format in most categories, including relisted items and listings that are ended early.

I am starting to read about the managed thing right now. I never even heard of it until today. I am not a business, just a civilian collector with a hobby.
Thanks everyone for your time and help.
All the best!
Cheers!
