Nope. I'm out here sometimes paying a $20 fee for a $200 transaction 
You paid that much fees? 10% of the total price is absurd. Maybe what happened here is that your transactions had so much input and so much out puts that cause the price of the fees to increase by this much. So far, I transferred $800 and just paid about $5 in fees which is already the best fees at the time to confirm the quickest time as possible.
