I've gone over the fee schedule many times, and can't figure out some things.  I understand a micro fee of .15 is applied to items under 1.00.  If I sell 9 items at .99, and invoice them together.  Do I pay 9X .16  or do I pay .30 for the invoice plus percentage.

 

Also is shipping added to totals for fees?  Example:  i sell somethimng on ebay for 5.00, and 2.00 shipping.  Do I also pay a perentage on the shipping?

 

I'm thinking of upgrading, but need to lknow real numbers.

The fee is applied to the TOTAL amount of that particular transaction.

 

The TOTAL amount includes shipping and sales tax if applicable.

 

Basic Example with shipping and 6% sales tax:

 

You sell 10 items, each $.99 = $9.90  plus $2.10 shipping plus $.72 sales tax = $12.72

 

Micro Fees are 5% + $.05 which on $12.72 = $.69
