Another Gold Nugget from Mam that is just more misconstruing and misunderstanding of the post being responded to...
I didnt ask what the shipping was in the transaction - I asked what the OP paid for shipping...
There is NO SUCH THING as free shipping! - If the seller paid $10 to ship this item, then he/she sold an $18.75 item.
OMG, really. We weren't talking about any transaction but the one the OP created this thread to talk about.
That transaction was free shipping and it does matter. It is exactly why when the OP presented the numbers related to this specific transaction they did not have a separate amount for shipping. They just had the product price and the sales tax price for the total transaction that was paid by the buyer AND in turn the amount that the seller was charged their FVF on.
What the OP paid for shipping has absolutely NOTHING to do with the FVFs they paid to Ebay. I am unsure why you think the COST [not what the buyer was charged] of shipping has to do with anything regarding FVFs.
However you are right I did misunderstand your question "Does that $28.75 include the shipping cost?" I assumed something that I really should not have done. I thought you were asking how much the buyer paid for shipping above the $28.75. That is most certainly my bad. But it didn't occur to me that you would think that the actual cost of shipping had anything to do with FVFs paid to Ebay. I should have asked you for clarification and I'm sorry I made that error, I will try to be more careful in the future. Sincerely.😍
Thank you for trying to school me on what Free Shipping is, but I've been clear on that since the day the site allowed it in 2011.
