Charge for postage

Dear Sir.

Why do you charge for postage, postage is not part of the item price and it is a seperate cost item.

You are profiteering from it, this should not be included in your already high charges.

I am considering stopping my account due to this charge unless it is terminated.

I await you coments on this matter.

ebay charge 10% of everything the seller receives, item price and P&P

it has been this way for years because some sellers were charging 99p for the item and charging the real price as the P&P and therefore not paying ebay any fees,

sensible sellers increase their item price or the P&P to cover this charge

@mgbbuilder

eBay charge 10% of the total price INC P&P.....just as Paypal do

This is because dodgy sellers would list an item for £1 with £50 P&P to avoid fees

You should include the eBay 10% in the P&P you charge
