Is 10% the new final fee? It was 4.7% "way back when".
The FVF is 10% of the payment, which includes both selling price and (here's the tricky bit) the shipping fee based on the lowest domestic rate.
So if you sold an item to Canada for $100 plus $10 shipping, you would be charged $11 FVF.
If you sold the same item the Netherlands for $100 and charged $50 shipping, you would pay exactly the same fee, $11.
The 4.7% FVF was a few decades ago.
Meantime our other fees have been reduced.
We used to pay for ALL listings, now, although the listing fee is nominally 30 cents, we get 50 free listings each month, and larger sellers with Stores pay reduced listing fees (from about 2.5cents to about a dime).
And those Stores are in Search,which is a huge change, again from over a decade ago.
BTW- When your customer's payment clears, it will be Held for 21 days against your service. You can print a shipping label (not Letter rate) from the Held funds.
To use Shippo or SnapShip discounted labels, you will need a Small Business Solutions number, available online from Canada Post. Worth at least 5% on any label, more on some.
This is applicable to all new, occasional, and returning sellers. It's not personal.
