So recently eBay have raised the final value fee to a flat 10% of the item's selling price without this being capped. Therefore, if I want to sell a computer for £200 for example, eBay will take the listing fee of 40p and then £20 in final value fees! This is without the 20p + 3.2% slice of the pie that PayPal take as well.
How is it therefore viable to use eBay going forward? Previously I would have expected to pay about £6-7 for something of a similar value to the example above. It leaves me no option but to look for something else, but what? Ebay is the only vehicle that allows me to reach so many people, I just have to pay a hefty premium to do so!
