I would like to highlight that EBAY states that since we have left Paypal and gone direct with EBAY for payments, we are saving money compared to before. I believe this is totally wrong for people who are selling low value items between the amounts of £1.29 - £1.99 - £2.99. Here is an representative example Paypal Micropayment transaction fees - 5% + 0.05 per order + 12% EBAY final value fees Sale of item = £1.49 Paypal fee = 5% (£0.075) + £0.05 = £0.125 EBAY fee = 12% = £0.1788 Total = £0.1788 + £0.125 = £0.30 EBAY Payment transaction and final value fees 12.8% + £0.30 per order Sale of item = £1.49 EBAY fee = 12.8% = £0.19 Per order fee = £0.30 Total = £0.19 + £0.30= £0.49 Difference is £0.19 extra we are paying to EBAY directly and EBAY is misleading us to state that we are saving money, which is totally inaccurate. Also, in the circumstance if the buyer cancels their order without reason, returns, disputes and asks for a refund. In all circumstances, EBAY will not return the £0.30 per order fee, which is cunning of EBAY and makes the seller lose money for even the buyers mistake. The sum of £0.19 sounds smalls but add ups when you are dealing with hundreds and thousands of transactions. We should complain against this together and make EBAY change the rules back to how they were especially when we do not have the option anymore to use Paypal because EBAY has made the decision to not work with them anymore. If you agree - Please comment and lets make this complaint together as EBAY is being unfair to all us sellers who are dealing with micropayments and low value items
