So if I read correctly then this is the break down of the fees:

Ebay fee: 10%
Paypal fee: 2.9% + 0.30 per transaction

I sold an item for 85.99 and I have 83.20 in my paypal account.

Obviously I'm not complaining about having more than expected.. But can someone who is experienced with ebay please tell me what I am missing here?

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could break down the math with an example.

Am I a complete idiot when it comes to math (completely possible) or am I just missing something here?

Edit: By the way, I offered free shipping. I don't know if that helps?
