As we get closer to the imposition of eBay's new oppressive payments system, I just wanted to bring to everybody's attention a new hitch that was recently clarified.

Previously, I covered what amounts to an increase from 1.5% to 4.65% additional fees on international purchases.

This is from eBay's explanation of managed payments

* The final value fee is based on the amount of the total order
* The total order is defined as the purchase price, tax collected, and shipping
* For international sales, shipping may be counted as the cheapest domestic option (but this is not clear)


That's right everybody, it was bad enough paying 2.9% PayPal fees on the buyers tax. Now eBay is going to take 12.3%. Because f*ck everybody.
