I sold a dvd for £3.70 incl postage and was charged 87p fees using the new Ebay payment management service. This equates to 23.5% !     I was led to believe that using ebay payment service rather than Paypal management service would be more profitable. Can anyone tell me how much i would have received if i had stuck with Paypal and is there a way to switch back to Paypal payment managements ? Thank you.

I am not on managed payments yet and find it impossible to get full details of fees.

 

I understand that in addition to the selling fee of 10% ebay take 30p plus a % similar to what paypal charged. 

 

Even working on the limited information I have I can only make up charges of 77p. Do you not get a proper accounting on a statement of how it is calculated? For low value items the fixed fee of 30p is the killer.
