Mark_Dj I sold a phone the other month on Ebay for £310. The fees for selling the phone is £45.08 :shock: . Then Paypal took £11:00 odd for doing the deal through them. I remember only ever paying about £8.00 back in the days for seeling items like a phone, thats the last time I will be selling stuff on Ebay :evil: .
Matt £45! Fuck me, that's mental. When did they change the fees? That's a 15% fee for selling on there
Mark_Dj Tell me about it, I nearly fell over when I seen it. Here is a breakdown of the charges.............. https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/markmk/fees.jpg
Matt Fuck me, that is mental! They have charged you twice for the Reserce Price Listing Fee. Any reason for this?
Mark_Dj If you click the link you can see the whole image, it's not showing the fees on my side of it on the right hand side of the image
Matt Either way though mate, that's a rediculous amount to pay for selling a phone on ebay. How much must people be paying to sell a £4k car!?!?!?
Sjdickso Yep i sold somthing the other day and also got charged 15% then the paypal fee nearly wasnt worth it.
Matt I still buy the odd thing off ebay, but haven't sold anything on there since I got scammed selling two mobie phones.
Matt Martyn said: How did u get scammed? The phones were bought on the Buy Now option, by someone with 0 feedback, and then wanted me to post them to Nigeria for their boss/girlfriend. It was a common thing.

It was a common thing. I have had that done to me before, then i had to offer to the second person / relist which then you get charged twice for relisting the item :twisted:
MikeS they really do rip you off 12% cut of any sale then another 3% for paypal fees then another cut to transfer to bank like VAT
