No, UK buyer, as far as I can tell. I sold another item a few days later for the same price and that had a lower PayPal fee, in line with what I expected, so I'm baffled by this first one! It's not a huge amount of money but I felt bad because I was selling my daughter's toy for her and she got a bit less money than she'd expected.

Hi everyone, I've just sold an item on eBay for £8.10 (item cost £5, postage cost £3.10). PayPal have taken 70p as their fee but if the charge is 2.9% + 30p, I think they should only have taken 53p. I am based in the UK and a personal seller. Can anyone shed light on why I was charged so much? It seems like a mistake but am finding it difficult to contact PayPal or query this with them. Thanks for your help, Lin
