retail delivery fee
There was a retail delivery fee added to a sale I made. I've never seen this before. It was collected by eBay, but I can't find an explanation of what it is and why it was charged on this item.

I assume you live in MN or OR. See delivery fee here -

OP1 year agoActually I don't. I'm a seller and I'm in Texas. The link you added was quite interesting, however it states .28 cents for Colorado. I initially thought that maybe that was it, however ebay charged .29 cents for this order. I also, just sold another item that is being shipped to CO and that fee is not listed. Very strange.

Sorry, I thought you were the buyer.
It looks like eBay is behind on updating the policy page - the fee went up to $.29 for 7/24 - 6/25.

Was regular CO sales tax charged on the new order? The delivery fee only applies to orders where sales tax is applied.
