I took a break from selling on ebay and have just returned to find this issue (final value fees on postage costs). I don't expect change to develop from a forum hosted by the company adding these extra fees, alas, felt it was worth a few minutes to express my frustration.
I understand there were dishonest sellers charging ridiculous shipping fees but surely these should be dealt with on a case-by-case basis rather than an unfair rule applied to all sellers?? I never charge extra for postage and now this is another fee from ebay. Anyone who has sold on ebay will surely agree that their fees are already quite high considering they are only a platform. Plus sellers are charged by PayPal as well.
Many buyers may think this doesn't affect them, however, I now feel my only option is to up the price on my items to accommodate these further fees. Which of course does affect buyers. I find it unethical to charge fees on a service ebay does not provide (shipping).
