I think all sellers on eBay should come together and demand a reduction in eBay and Paypal fees. I ran un into the same situation where I spent all my profit on eBay and Paypal fees. I still don't understand how sellers are not speaking up about this fee issue.

We are paying 9.9 % of each item we sell to Ebay its really not appropriate way that they are cutting that much,
Paypal cutting 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction and if any one notice that we are losing 0.50 on exchange rate too when our currency getting change to $ so to calculate these all nothing will left for us.

Hello ANS,

Upgrading to an eBay store will significantly lower your listing fees, but selling 4 items does not really translate that you are ready for one.

Ideally it's best for seller to accumulate solid feedback, sell for at least 3-6 months and have a consistent number of sales before actually opening their own store.

When you have the traffic volume that eBay has, you can pretty much make your own rules without concern, despite what people say. And of course, traffic flow such as eBay has brings sellers, sellers bring traffic and the cycle of e-commerce just keeps going round and around. No one actually enjoys seeing so much of their margin disappear into eBay's pockets, but that's life.

There are plenty of other online platforms that are far more cost effective to market through, but hardly anything that provides the traffic flow of an eBay and traffic flow equals the opportunity of sales flow, what anyone online seller needs to be successful ultimately.
