[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2518252, member: 15929"]Ok, here's what happened so tell me that this wasn't stupid. I bought two of the 2016 Gold Standing Liberty coins. After a day of no nibbles for $600 BIN (both were in the same listing) and fearing I'd be left holding the bag, I dropped the BIN to $560. One coin sold within the hour. After I printed my shipping label and calculated my net proceeds which, after fee's amounted to a $10 profit, I raised the price up to $570. The second coin sold within 2 hours to a California buyer where sales tax was collected. I then filled in my tracking spread sheet and noticed that the Final Value fee's were different as I was charged more for the California Buyer and started to entertain the idea that eBay was charging a Final Value Fee on Sales Tax. I was going to post something along the lines of how I thought it was wrong for them to do so and just as I hit the "Post" button, it dawned on me that, no, ebay doesn't charge a FVF for sales tax but the difference in fee's was because one sold for more than the other! Like I said, it was stupid. So there you have it. It was stupid.[/QUOTE]
