How is this right? Fees

[lucylou008]

Hi. Ive sold my items and the total of that is £566 odd pounds in total. Yet ive been charged £70 odd for fees? I thought it was only 10 percent of the final value fee?

To see exactly what you've been charged for, open your 'My eBay' page and go to account > summary > view all account activity > fees. You will find a detailed breakdown of your invoice.

It may be free to list items for sale but optional listing upgrades such as a reserve price (4% fee), BIN option, gallery plus or a sub-heading have to be paid for whether or not the item sells.

When an item is sold eBay charges a 10% final value fee on the total price, including p&p. If you have had a buyer who didn't pay you need to open an unpaid item case to get this fee credited back to your account.

You can find full details of eBay's fees here: http://sellercentre.ebay.co.uk/private/what-fees-youll-pay

This includes a list of optional listing upgrades and what they cost.
