How much does eBay take out in fees these days? Thinking about starting up myself but keep hearing about horrible fees and that by the end of your sale after dealing fees,taxes,and shipping you only make roughly 61.5% of what you sold the item for.

Well it depends if you have good suppliers that give you great prices like myself.

No, I just have a cramped apartment with a bunch of stuff to get rid of then once I build up my hoard of items again time to get rid of more.

Ebay is 10% of final sell price and paypal is 3.4% plus 20p

If you have a store, it goes down to 8% i think.

Some people on Ebay set the price of the product low, but then offset the reduction against having high delivery costs. The logic is that you pay ebay commission on the price of the sale, not the delivery costs.
