eBay - Sellers Extra Charges - Question

[Marchillo]

Putting this on the front page for more looks so I apologize in advance.

I won an auction today. Noticed the seller listing 4 of the same card in another single listing. I work out a deal with him on 1 of the 4 cards. He invoices me and it shows up as "seller extra charges". I'm fine with this but are these not included in eBay bucks calculation? It's actually 3x the amount of the original auction win and at 8% it's a decent little chunk.

Thanks - Steve

I don't know about whether the ebay bucks apply, but the seller's fees will for him. This is about the only way ebay allows sellers to invoice a buyer for an item not directly won from an auction listing. Otherwise, the seller would have to set up an entirely new listing for you, and then you buy it there.

Thanks for the reply

I tried to read terms on eBay and it appears I may be SOL.

Bummer. It's a few bucks but over the 3 months these add up.

Just talked to eBay. Not included and nothing they can do. Oh well.
