I'll be selling consumer electronics. The "fee" of 8%+ seems high on Amazon. It is less than what I'm discounting for distributors in Mexico, but it sure seems to add up

An Ebay store seems less expensive, but I think you also get dinged with Paypal fees on each sale. If this doubles the fees, it ends up about the same as Amazon.

Anyone have a comparison on the two for sales? Also, a couple of my products exceed the maximum price on Amazon.

I've checked for similar products on both sites, and neither has a complete, plug and play system. Some supply "kits" of low quality stuff and basically expect you to put it together. And the parts are seriously outdated technology.
