Why do I get money taken before payment when I sell and charged after by E-bay

Every time I sell something I never get what it sold for .Then I get a statement saying I owe E-Bay money WHY ?

Thanx Yvonne

The money that is taken straight away is paypals fee for processing the payment,

ebay invoice for their fees after the sale.

Paypal charge 3.4% (3.9% for overseas payments) plus 20p

ebay charge 10% of the total - item price plus P&P
