That Calculator is awesome!!!! Thanks! Did you all realize that between the eBay "Sales Tax" of 8.75% and PayPal's "Sales Tax" of 2.3% alone, the "Church of Ebay" takes more from the coffers of it's believers than the Catholic Church or the Mormon Church, which are happy with 10% each and offer a place in heaven to boot? Add to that the listing fees eBay charges,the $.30 PayPal charges on top of their sales tax, and the requirement in some states to collect that state's sales tax as well; as a sellers, we'd have to do like the stores and charge a significant mark-up just to not take a loss on an item. And this is exactly what is happening on eBay, the days of finding a GOOD bargain have become scarce for me. I, for one, did not sign up for this ride to break even on a good day or to fill corporate coffers. I just need some xtra cash occasionally...
