You should be able to use your monthly invoices to get the total ebay fees paid.

Upgrading to a business account takes just a few minutes. In your PayPal account, you can then go to Reports > Financial Summaries > "Financial Summary" and you can choose 2018 from the drop-down menu for the report interval.

This will generate a summary of your PayPal activity for the year, including a line item for all payments received, for Fees (i.e., PayPal fees), and another line for all refunds sent.
To see your payments to a specific vendor such as eBay shipping, go to your basic Summary page and click on "Payments sent," then do a search on "eBay Inc Shipping" for 2018. Unfortunately, PayPal no longer provides a total for this information (as they did with "Transaction finder") so you'll have to either add them up or export the data, to Excel.
Excellent information and just to expand on that. To get your Ebay fees, you can get that from your Ebay invoice. You can print them or download them.
search your emails,you have to play with search words but just find one and look "USPS Priority Mail" your eBay invoice also shows shipping,ebay fees pp fees in reports,i search my emails for everything i might have missed PP sends a receipt for all purchases on PP debit,
WOW, that is an incredible amount of work that you can just download a report for PP and get that information coupled with using the Ebay invoice for part of the information. I can't imagine doing all that you do to gather this information for my business records.

The Paypal reports are all inclusive of everything that has gone through that site. While you may miss something, PP won't. Their records have to balance with their own business records. In all my years here, I've never known the PP reports to be out of balance. I may like a different format, but all the info is there.
Because I like a different format, I drop the reports into Excel. Then I arrange things how I like to see them and hide the columns that for me are not necessary. Works great for me and many others I would suspect.
If I had to search my emails for my business records every year, it would drive me nuts.
If PP is your only source you are taking payments from right now, then your records are there. That coupled with your Ebay invoice will get you all the information you need.
Your only exceptions would be if you accepted a different form of payment from someone or any sales you may have on another site that is not going through your PP account.
