Why is eBay fee’s so high now. Like it’s not worth selling here anymore unless you are a business.. use to be best place to sell used items. Now My options here in Canada are Kijiji or Facebk marketplace..or is this just me.

Remember that in the past, you were paying fees both to eBay and PayPal.  Now your payment processing fees are combined with your final value fees, and eBay adjusted its FVF to reflect that.

 

Think about the total you're paying in fees for a typical sale.  If you were selling something for somebody on commission for that amount, would you find it worth your while to take on commission sales?
