eBay fees now based on total including taxes?
Perhaps someone has already answered this question, but I haven't found it. Will eBay now base their final value fee on the total of item price+shipping+taxes? I hope not. Charging a fee for a service that isn't provided (shipping) is bad enough, but a tax on a tax??

·3 years agoI can relate to the fees frustration.
The only thing that I find undermining is that ebay charges fees on the total invoice (Item - tax - shipping).
BUT, they deduct the tax inclusive fee from the total invoice MINUS the taxes.
I do lose $12.00 to sometimes $35.00 a sale on that teeny tiny 'thing' that ebay has in their fees policy.
Yes, they can do it, as they make their own policies. Yes, it's legal, as I agree to sell on the platform. Yes, that means the cost to do business increases slightly. Yes, this all means that I, as a seller have to increase my prices to compensate a loss on collectible items.
It's the way business is.
Besides, EVERYBODY has frustrations. eBay senior leaders, complain...ebay sellers, complain...ebay buyers, complain...do you see where I'm going with all this?
Live it, learn to like it, or leave it.
Venting is OK...that's why this forum is here. Take it all with a grain of humility and try to refrain from badgering those who may not have ALL the knowledge.
We all need to give each other a break...read, and move-on.
