Example of selling 99p record before and after changes
For this exercise lets say the actual cost of recorded post plus mailer is £1.50
Before
You list at £0.99 and post £1.50 this was free of charge to list.
You sell it for £0.99 so you pay ebay £0.10 and paypal fee £0.28
So you actually get £0.61 for your record.
Now
You list at £2.49 with free post this costs £0.10
You sell it for £2.49 so you pay ebay £0.25 and paypal fee £0.28
So you actually get £0.36 for your record.
So now ebay have just increased there profit by 40% at the sellers cost.
If you list on .com you have to deliver in the USA free.
If you listed on Gemm for £0.99 plus £1.50 post they don't charge for listing and take a straight 13% commission so you would get £0.66 for your record.
Netsoundsmusic don't charge for listing and take 5% if you take care of the payment yourself. Not as well known as Gemm but good site if the UK is your market.
