Final Value Fees

[shoparamaisus]

I recently sold two guitars but the 12% Final Value Fees mean that I have undersold both items.  Effectively, my experience has been that I got the money back for one and gave the other away!  At the time I had free listings and thought I would get all the money paid by the buyer (as happened through Paypal). I think it is misleading to give free listings without making much clearer that ebay still charge a Final Value Fee on a sold item. I would like ebay to refund me some of the £98-odd they took as a gesture of good will.

It is not misleading it is fully explained that thereis no listing fee (35p) if charged, but therearestill selling fees.

You are epected to read ALL of any offers not just the bit that says FREE.

The Final Value fee is 12.8% + 30p, so you keep 87.2% less 30p of the sale proceeds. If that isn't enough then you need to rethink your start prices.

Where in the free listings offer does it say clearly that I will still be charged a Final Value Fee?
