I recently noticed I am being charged Final Value Fees on the sales tax amount. I've been looking across the internet trying to find if this is legal in all 50 states. But nothing conclusive. tyler@ebay was the original poster of my screenshot. So Tyler (or anyone else how had knowledge of this) is it now legal for eBay to charge a final value fee on taxes in every single state? If so, can you please provide proper documentation so I can verify the accuracy of this. Or if anyone can point me in the right direction of where to find this information. I have a friend with a pretty big time lawyer, that goes after big companies, like eBay, and was considering reaching out on Monday to see if this is indeed legal. I did find information showing that it was legal in SOME states back in 2019 but I have found NOTHING showing it is legal in every state. Yet, I am being charged a final value fee on every transaction, which includes many states that I have not been able to find anything stating it is legal. I want to contact the lawyer anyways just to confirm because I am sure anyone that works for eBay will just cover for them. Another reason I want to seek legal counsel is regarding my listings being wrongfully removed. eBay has even provided reasons as to why they were removed that were down right lies. Some of the policies they said I had broken didn't even make sense at all. For example, saying my listing was reported for breaking the Vero policy yet they didn't even have the right company listed and yes I did the research. The company they listed doesn't even represent the brand of the product that was removed. Therefore, their reasoning isn't plausible at all, but I digress. I am just looking for info on the fees on taxes. Thanks in advance.

As Marlon Brando said in a Streetcar Named Desire, " I have a lawyer acquaintance who will look into this".
