I've just spent the last couple hours with the new Fee Illustrator tool:

http://pages.ebay.com/sellerinformation/news/FeeIllustrator2010.html

and I highly recommend it.

I used this tool to compare my options (close my basic store or not? how much will my eBay fees increase?)

Sadly, as a part time, low-volume seller of antiques and collectibles, I find that my eBay fees will increase about 22% over last year's. I will also need to morph my current 165 SIF listings into about 50 FP--thus reducing my "long tail" of antiques and collectibles.

Kudos to those who provided the Fee Illustrator tool!

Without it, I might have spent dozens of hours calculating this bad news--which would have made me feel even worse.
