Ebay is going to start charging Final Value Fees on shipping costs starting April 19th. Get rid of all your shit items before then!

April 19—List Auction-style FREE with FREE Buy It Now—up to 50 items per month with new Standard Fees.
Under the new Standard fees, list Auction-style FREE, any start price—up to 50 items a month. Pay only if your item sells. Plus you can add a Buy It Now price to your 50 items FREE—set the price you want and grab buyers ready to act now.

The Standard Final Value Fee rate for Auction-style listings will stay at 9% and be applied to the total amount of the sale—including shipping—with a maximum Final Value Fee of $100.

Auction-style fees for Store subscribers will NOT change in April: If you sell more than 50 items Auction-style per month, an eBay Store subscription will most likely give you the lowest overall fees. If you don’t have an eBay Store, consider opening one now.
As always, eBay Standard fees are the right choice if you sell occasionally or sell to earn extra cash. If you sell more than 50 items a month, you’ll benefit from the overall discounted rates that come with an eBay Store subscription.
 
Not until July 6th
"Also, to encourage low-cost shipping, starting July 6, Fixed Price Final Value Fee rates will be reduced and applied to the total amount of the sale, including shipping. Keep your shipping costs low and consider offering free shipping to get the lowest overall fees. "
 
"Just when you thought we couldn't bend you over any further, we showed you that we don't need to...we'll just take away the lube! By the way, our profits are great and our stock looks healthy. Thanks chumps!"

That's for Fixed Price. For auction it's April 19th. Still good to know for those who do fixed price.
 
I noticed for some reason that their quoted fees just about doubled for selling a BIN $45 dollar game, so there wasn't a lot stopping me from heading over to Amazon and paying $3 more to avoid all the slow payment and not-as-described hairsplitting headaches.
 
I already jack up my shipping charges to cover fees, now I'll have to raise them even more. Thanks a lot screwbay.

What are you selling? IF you're selling games, than you'll actually be saving money on anything you sell for $25 or more. Other items that you charge a lot of shipping on will be a problem =/.
