Having read the announcement, my understanding is that this is a ~240% final value fee increase on an item selling for $550, in an auction style listing. A 9% final value fee versus the current 3.5% (+$2.19) fee. The listing fee is relatively insignificant, as I can list any numismatic item for less than $4, with assurance of auction control, or 15 cents, without auction control. I must have an "old timer" affliction, and mis-read or mis-understood something. This amounts to an eBay/Paypal sales fee of >~15% when considering the net realized on eBay being charged the mandated Paypal fees which consider eBay gross, plus S/H fees. Please tell me what I'm missing, as this is an occasion when I would enjoy apologizing for a "senior moment", and being "stupid".
