Resolved! T/F: sales tax unknown, and so seller fee unknown at time of listing?

(Brand new seller)As best I can tell, the seller fee on an item is based on the total amount the buyer pays, including sales tax. The sales tax rate to a U.S. buyer could range from 0% to almost 10%. So the seller doesn't know the eBay fee until the ...
