I sold $87 in the last 90 days, including items ppl didn't pay for. I paid $15.95 each month to have the store and web address. I could list my items cheaper in the store format, but that doesn't let ppl bid on the items. So, they have no chance of selling for more than the Buy-It Now Price...Each listing is about 8 cents the way I list. THen, eBay takes a final value fee, which is 10 percent for $25 and under. If it sells for more than $25, they charge 10% for the $25 and 7% of the remaining amount...and PayPal takes a percentage of the amount I am receiving on each payment (not sure how much it is, but it's around 10%+).....and I have to buy envelopes and boxes and tape...but Priority Mail boxes are free if you ship PM. I also print my own labels from my computer at USPS.com, so that's ink and paper, too. \
