Selling on EBay and payment received via PayPal.
5 Answers
Not sure if this is the right section but here goes...
I have recently decided to try and raise some money and also declutter my house by selling my junk on EBay.
My first 2 items sold last week and as well as the instertion fee and a final value fee charged by EBay, I have been charged a fee by PayPal for each payment.
Does anyone know why?
I have previously sold 3 items before, in April and May this year, all three for a higher value than the 2 I sold this week but those 3 didn't attract any fees from PayPal. Is this fee a new thing?
One item was only �6 and PayPal have deducted 40p and the other was �7.87 and 47p has been taken. The ones earlier this year were �24.99, �63 and �38 and no fees were taken from them.
I'm confused. They are only low value items and by the time I have paid insertion fee, final value fee, PayPal fee and fee to trf funds from PayPal to my bank account, it hardly seems worth the effort!!

They pass these charges on to you, plus a bit more. Don't forget you have sellers' protection, the buyer has buyers' protection all backed by PayPal - they can't do it for no money.
