I sold a few things on eBay the other day for the first time in a while and checking my fees I noticed on one item they'd actually charged me a final value fee of £0.24 on postage! When did they start doing that?

Probably over a year ago I'd say. They started giving free listings (instead of charging you a fee even if the item doesnt sell) but now charge their 10% final value fee on shipping charges as well. I know its backwards that they can do that, but they do. Like I said earlier, if you sell a lot, look into an eBay store. You get much better final value fees, and subscribing can pay for itself even if you only end up selling 1 larger value item a month.

I don't sell a lot on there anymore, but this was the first time in a while. How much does the store cost? I can't imagine it'd be worth it to the occasional seller. I think everything should be free to list on the site and you pay fees only when/if the item sells.
