They are indeed, ridiculous. Ebay/paypal is still #1 in buying stuff you need. So obv they rake seller because buyers will be there. I cant wait to see the decentralized ebay-like with crypto currencys as a payment method. CEO of ebay announced that they will accept BTC in a near future. Not sure when that future will be. They are already having a crypto currencys section to sell those. They charge a fixed rake and you cant complete the transaction directly with them, it just induces it. The price of the rake is high.
My numbers are saying 12-15% rake. If you become PowerSeller, you save 20% of that.
And paypal charges 2.5/3% for currency changes.
