Sold a laptop for $1800. After eBay Fees I'll get around $1355. Definitely will never sell on eBay again. I didn't realize there were so many fees

Did you look at the Order Details to understand why the fees were so high?

You can click on the Transactions Fees on the bottom right and see exactly why you were charged fees.  

Normal Fees are about 13.25% but yours seem a bit higher.

Unless you chose some of the available "optional" upgrades (promotions, off-site listing etc....) you should have received around 1550.00 (before shipping)

Maybe you should check the breakdown.....

You didn't take time to read about selling and fees on eBay before you listed? Do you also realize that as a new seller you have to wait up to 30 days for a pay out? 

Looking at the listing, I am seeing less than $10 being charged for shipping. Guessing part of the fee you were charged, maybe was extra to cover the real cost of shipping because no way that would ship for that little, which wouldn't have been a fee but a cost the shipping.

Which is why it is very important to read Ebay policy on fees before you list your item.  Did you use promote listing? There is extra fees tied to that.

That's part of it. I confused some items for being the same thing. They did remove one fee for $149 because it was not something I signed up for.

So does this mean your fee was around $296 instead of around $455?
