why I'm I paying 20% Ebay fees ? 9.9 selling fees and an additional 9.9 selling fee when my buyers

Hi , why I'm I paying 20% Ebay fees ? 9.9 selling fees and an additional 9.9 selling fee when my buyers decide upgrade to express post ?

 

I sold it for $259.99 with free regular shipping , My Final Valve fee was $28.31 But the buyer wanted an upgrade to express shipping so i changed him $13.00 shipping cost . The actual shipping costs of the express shipping was $15.90 , that is an lost of $2.90 straight off the bat .

 

So this is my question WHY IS EBAY charging me additional 10% $1.42 for my Express shipping , Im not making money out of it , so should EBAY ?????????????

Because of malicious buyers, and because I choose to. In fact eBay used to recommend doing so. Those who don't like something you said on the boards and buy in order to leave negative feedback. It happens; not to me, but I don't post with a selling account. Both of which are running 5 on all the stars and have never had a neg. So my buyers seem to think I'm okay.

 

Which doesn't solve your issue of attacking the player rather than the ball. Sellers WITH considerable visible feedback have basically told you the same as me, which would tend to indicate I know what I'm talking about.

If you think the Question is wrong or dumb or just both ! ( as I Admit my question was a bit dumb and worded very badly ) 

 

Why do you feel the need to answer it ? 

 

Why do you feel the need to answer with hate ? 

 

See if it was me and i thought the question was worng and dumb ! I just would not comment on it 

 

And sorry i dont understand why you feel the need to post under a buying account instead of a selling account .

 

If you were nice to people there would be less possibility of malicious buyers , And then you could post under one of your selling accounts

I asked you a question too -

 

What was the standard postage you had already included in the item price? Was the cost of express postage more than $13 more than that?

 

You chose not to answer.

Thanks, but I'm not in the market for anything you're selling.

Do sellers selling into Australia pay the GST? Or is it just me paying thier far share.


No to both questions.

 

GST is a tax only Australians can pay, so international sellers are not liable for paying it on eBay services, meaning you (as a consumer) only pay your own share.

A bit harsh directing that at d*g, rather than the responsible person. D*g NEVER does disruptive NOR hostile.
