[DeTomaso] Ebay fees a lot higher now?

[Mike Thomas]

Which is why I've been using Craigslist a lot more for local stuff.

I was planing to list some items and this thread caused me to go check
Ebay's fees and fine print;
 
Yes it is 9% final sales fee, but that is now calculated on the total cost
to the buyer i.e. item sales price plus handling & shipping fees! So if you
ship an item at your true cost to buyer, you are on a loser from the start.
 
But wait that's not all, as depending on how many items you list a month, if
you want a reserve or But it Now there's more fees to pay! A reserve price
auction for an item over $200 is now charged at 1% of reserve price up to a
maximum $50 in fees.
 
I'll be thinking carefully before I list too much on Ebay.
