Well the auction is now over @ a final price of £315.00
Ebay Fees will have been £31.48

Paypal Fees will have been £10.91

Insured special delivery will have cost £6.40
(source: http://www.royalmail.com/price-finder )
So the seller made £266.21 which could buy him 0.586BTC on LocalBitcoins ( https://localbitcoins.com/buy_bitcoins ) at the current price of £386.03
I think I will be holding on to my 0.5's for a little while longer yet.

Interesting calculation, thank you for sharing some of the "magic" behind the scene in ebay, learned something new
Looking back today I realised I made an error, the sale amount after fees would have bought 0.69BTC then. Today, that has fell to 0.6588BTC (@ £404.10 on localbitcoins)
Hope your buyer pays up fair and square dave3k because they got a good deal!
