recently i sold some parts on ebay, so like always you pay a listing and final value fee. So i sold the item for 450.00 and shipping was 200.00 (cylinder heads). ebay sent me a final value fee of 81.00... so i did the math. they charged me the 12.5 percent on the auction price, shipping and the sales tax...i sent them a message asking if it was right and they said yes. I explained to them that the tax is paid to the state and shipping charges to the shipper(fed ex). why would they charge for that? they said its their policy. i guess when listing items you must pad your price an extra 12.5% on the shipping and price of the item. otherwise you will lose money. I still think they should have only charged me on the 450 not 710.00, the auction price for the goods. not for the shipping service and state tax...EBAY is ripping people off.....
