Weird prices on the bay of evil

[RWD3M]

What gives with all the odd prices ending (mostly) with £xxx.72p, or £xx.22p

Am I missing something?

Yes it's since ebay changed the fee structure

think its because now charge a buyer premium so your item was say 25 now becomes say 26.27 for example

75p +4% of the final price. That's "Buyer Protection" You even pay it if you collect, Plus... you have to pay through eBay, there's no C.O.D., so they get money both from the buyer and seller.

It is the sound of KERCHING!! wrote in numbers, larger numbers than previously.

I remember Ebay charging betwen 10 and 15% of the total transaction cost, item and P&P. The latter because chancers would sell things for a penny but charge large amounts for postage.

Well, the Buyer Protection still works,
if your claim is found valid you get the Protection Fee refunded.

(I just need to find another brass tank rad that was in good condition and survives shipping).
