I occasionally sell a few bits and bobs i no longer want on ebay, but at the end of April there will a change in the way fees are calculated, i have only had a glance and i am not if it will be much more expensive to sell?Initally i thought it would be but then i realised there would be no paypal fees and that might make it at least equal in cost! has anyone looked into it and what do TFs think?
 
Example 100 € goods value, sending fees domestic shipping (Germany) 6 €, Eu zone (without UK) 16 €, Asia 36 €

Domestic:
Old model Ebay 10% of goods value, PayPal 2,49% of the hole sum (106 €) + 0,35 € = 10€ + 2,99€ = 12,99 €
New model Ebay 11% of the hole sum + 0,35€ per ordering = 12,01 €

Eu zone (without UK, sending cost are much higher):
Old model 10% +PayPal 4,49% (of 116€)+0,35€ = 10 € + 5,56 € = 15,56 € (UK 15,66)
New model 11% of 116 € + 0,35 € = 13,11 € (UK 16,01)

Asia:
Old model 10 % + PayPal 5,79 % + 0,35€ = 18,22 €
New Model 11% + 3,93 % of 136 € +0,35 € = 20,65 €
Conclusion: the further away you sell, the more expensive the new ebay model is.
In the EU it is cheaper (without UK, here you have sending cost 26 € + 1,43% Extra at Ebay)

Have calculated this, because I also want a comparison. Domestic bank transfer or within Euro zone was the cheapest way with only 10% Ebay fees
