I started an ecommerce site recently, and I made a separate business paypal account and I noticed on my first(and only) sale so far the fee was 12%, it just seems awfully high to me, and I lost money off the sale

Was it a low value item? I sell the odd item for £2.19 and PayPal take 36p off which is a large chunk! I break even on that sale but do an offer 4 for 3. Almost all my buyers take up the offer thankfully!
