FVF % seems just a little high?

I just got my monthly invoice notification and at a cursory glance it seems the Total monthly Fees percentage seems a little high at 13.23%.  As a Store owner (9% FVF) and TRS PLUS (10% FVF discount).  I am just a little confused.  The dollars are a little different, in doing the math of FVFs charged and total sales dollars the percentage is 11.59% (Fees/Sales dollars), which seems high too. 

If I take my monthly sales DOLLARS x 9% FVF -(10% Discount on FVF) the difference between what I come up with and what eBay is showing I owe on fees is $ 49.92 difference.

Looks like I will have to go through the invoice line by line and see if there are any duplicates.

@lintbrush*  Thanks but already accounted for the Store Fee.  The $ 358 and change is off PayPal's CSV form, the actual shipping I paid for all items that month.

Re: FVF % seems just a little high?

The shipping FVF is based on what you charged for shipping not what you paid for shipping.

 

I used to closely audit eBay and PayPal fees but gave up after 10 years of not finding a single discrepancy. Now I just do a "quick skim" audit and that's mostly just of oddball combined International sales where I think they might screw up the shipping fvf......still haven't found an error although I've THOUGHT I'd found one a few times.

@slippinjimmy  Thanks Jimmy, I actually do the same with a quick calculation in my head ... but May's numbers really skewed.  As for the Shipping Fee charge, yes, I understand what the Fee is based on but my shipping via Parcel Select is pretty accurate and of course First Class, even if you make a few pennies per shipment the numbers don't add up to the big difference I am seeing ... but I sincerely appreciate your reply.

Choose the invoice that you want

On the right side is "Download"

It will give you a choice of HTML or PDF

 

PS ... you can't get there from the App ... you must log in to eBay from a browser

Thank you so much for the reply. However, I am still unable to save my invoice as a PDF file. See the screenshot I've attached. Any ideas?
