I don't sell much on Ebay, maybe 1 item or so a year, just received an invoice and nearly died. What a joke, going from 5% now to 9.9%, ebay good bye, i see you don't care about the small sellers like myself, only here for the large stores etc. What a rip off!!!!! Nearly 13% gone in ebay and paypal fees.

Well, actually.....

When fees were 5~% they applied a sliding scale. Your $2550 item would have incurred fees of less than $90.00 a couple of years ago.

Now, at a flat 9.9% it works out to 252.45, so that's nearly triple... But don't worry, the max FVF on an item is only $250*, so you did manage to "save" $2.45. 

Not to make you feel better or worse about it or anything, but I can't resist doing the math. 

*increasing to $750 on the US site for non-store sellers, so will probably increase to that here, too.
