What on earth is going on that Ebay is charging your selected Promoted Listing percentage based not just on the price you set for your item/s, but on the total including the shipping, AND the taxes? We don't receive that money, so why are we paying a percentage of it for Promoted Listings on top of regular fees? I switched to selling on Ebay because it was a far better experience than Amazon, where I felt like I was being harvested for fees to run an online business, all while having zero say whatsoever like I was plugged into the Matrix. I'm feeling like Ebay is going that route, too. Am I the only one? I'm a really small seller, and this is my first time in the community message boards. I can imagine other sellers have already complained about this, but wow. Do we have any say as sellers? How can we formally complain? Is that a thing anymore? I tried to get help using live chat, but they gave me no method to provide my own feedback regarding this matter. The response was "We will pass on your concern to the appropriate department". That's an unacceptable answer, Ebay.
