Hi, I sold my first item on EBay, few days a back. Total value of the item was coming up to be £32 after deducting the postage and VAT. But this morning I got an email that I have only been paid £26. Why is that please?
Item sold for £34.00 + £3.20 P&P = £37.20.
Ebay fee of 12.8% + 30p = £5.06.
Net amount = £32.14.
20% VAT is included in fees charged.
If you deduct £3.20 P&P, you end up with £28.94.
Don't you realise that ebay deduct 12.8% + 30p. There is no deduction for postage and VAT.
Ebay fee is charged on the total of Sale price + Postage which would be £37.20.
Fees are deducted from the £37.20 paid by the buyer.
I cannot agree your figures but you have all the details, click on PAYMENTS at the top of Seller Hub Page which gives a breakdown. I have never found any calculations to be wrong, I checked a few at the start of Managed Payments out of curiosity.
