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.

you never got all the money when paypal processed the payments

you were charged 10% by ebay and 2.9% plus 30p by paypal

you are now chargd 12.8% plus 30p by ebay only

you were offered 'free listing' i.e you could list the advert without paying a fee to do so,

it never said you wouldn't have to pay a final value fee if the item sold

ebay will not refund you any money.

Thank you for your opinion. Some sites do not wish to be beaten on price. l've given ebay a price comparison which they are considering.
