what ya could do, is after the auction has finished, cancell the transaction, and tell the buyer tho. then they wont charge ya stupid prices for selling it

PayPal fee is 3.4% + 20p.
eBay fee's vary according to the category used. When you list the item, put it as a buy-it-now, and just before you list it will tell you how much the fees will be if the item sells at that price.

now the seller wants to list it as a buy it now say£50 so i don't pay much tax through e-bay,then pay the rest through pay pal..
This idea is a risky to me as i have seen people get ripped of this way :stupid:

Dont do it you will not be covered by paypal.

Heres a break down on fees selling for £250
list fee 0.10p
fvf 10% 25.00
paypal flat fee 0.20p
paypal trans £6.00 (@2.4% maybe 3% for you)
