[rblxsuperstore]

Hey there just sarted selling with ebay and I have just notice that my fees seem unusally high . I have done $1,073 in sales and fees have accounted for $217.12 (%20.20). Warrentred all my listings have %3.9 advertisment fee, but the final valuation fee is $171.11 (%15.9). I have cheched the ebay fees per catagory and non of the fees seem to be this high. My catagory is (Video Games & Consoles > Video Game Merchandise)

Any idea or advice?

Yes but my catagory fall into Teir 1 (Video Games & Consoles) so the fees should be 8.03%? correct

You're selling virtual items

Electronically delivered items need to be listed in the Everything Else > Information Products category in the classified ad format

And also using Promoted Listings?   That costs extra

Ok thank you for that, I was just using the ebay suggested item catagory. I know that promoted listing cost extra but for example one orders fees that didnt incluide promoted listing was %19.1 in fees and my total final valuation fees are %15.9

I understand the other fees but, just the Final valuation fee in my fee brakdown is higher than any catagory, %15.9.

8% + 3.9% + 2.6% (payment processing fee - that Paypal used to charge) + GST = 15.9%, near as.

Twynnie, if I may (ahem) correct you....it's $0.33c fixed charge, not $0.30 and electronically delivered means no postage.

When you sell an item on eBay, the final value fee is calculated as a percentage of the total sale amount per item (item price + postage and handling charges), plus a fixed charge of $0.33 (incl. GST) per order.
