I mean, I guess if we're getting real technical it comes out to $8.04 worth of fees.

$65.00 x 9% ebay fees = $5.85
$65.00 x 2.9% paypal fees + $.30 = $2.19

The money doesn't matter. The whole situation was just unfortunate and the message written could have been done better.

As previously stated, the issue isn't about the amount he sold it for and whether it was higher or lower than we agreed upon. The issue is that he and I agreed that I would pay him $58 and wait until today to pay him. He later stated that he forgot to increase the price on his eBay auction and meanwhile it sold overnight. Had he told me this originally, I wouldn't have said anything publicly about it. But for him to say after we had an agreement..

"Sorry Craig....the Koufax sold on another site last night. I don't pull cards down until I actually have the money in hand. If it is any consolation, it sold for more money...I was actually wholesaling the cards for Net54 members."

...well, the whole thing just hit me wrong. After hearing the whole story from him, I do believe he made an honest mistake but his communications to me were not what I would expect from someone who has a great reputation as a seller. I do accept his apology, but still feel that card should be mine!

Oh well, anyone have a 1960 Topps Koufax PSA 6 that they want to sell to me for $58? LOL!

I think once someone has agreed to buy a card it should be taken down from ebay. I don't think it's right to insist that the person pay first. Just me.

You get charged 9% Ebay fees Jason? They are charging me 10%. I thought they charged EVERYONE 10%? If you are paying 9%, care to share? Every little bit helps, especially with the profit margins are so low....

I have an ebay store and I believe I'm only getting charged 9%. I may be wrong.

Yes, you're correct. Store owner's, in general, get charged 9%. Some have special deals with eBay and pay less. 10% is what non-store owners pay.
