This is what a typical transaction selling on ebay and receiving payment thru paypal is like:
Mini IPOD sold for 194.50
16.95 shipping
total payment via paypal 211.45
Ebay fees: -$12.82
Paypal fees: -$6.43
Raped by paypal and ebay = -$19.25
$211.45 - $19.25(fees) = $192.20
192.20 - 16.95 for shipping
total gain from selling ipod = $175.25 or should i say lost.
