Can someone splain to me

Thank Y’ALL FOR ALL THE HELP IN GETTING ME TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IT WAS THAT I GOT INTO.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I decided to try the “Advertise” feature (without reading
the ins and outs) and I do not understand about the additional .99 Sub Total.
Who adds this 99c to my advertised price? Who gets it?

I had this Silver Dollar listed for $45.00 + $1.95 S/H
This is how Bonanza showed the transaction.

Items Sold Your Price
1921 MS Morgan Silver Dollar US Coins Money $45.00
Subtotal $45.99
Shipping $1.95
Order amount $47.94 – and this is what the buyer was invoiced.
================================================

I just noticed on my to sell page, my asking price has been increased on all my items By $.99 by E-Bay???

SInce the items are selling from the other site – I went and looked at your listings, and they all have prices ending in 99 cents. Did they upload like that , or is it a glitch

That is what I am trying to find out. The $.99 was added by E-Bay?? Most all of my listings were even dollars.

If you check the transaction summary page ([URL removed] you should see that the buyer purchased this through ebay. So, the $0.99 that got added is probably the percentage that Bonanza charged you for listing the item on ebay for you. The $0.99 translates to 2.2% of the sale price of $45 (the fee is only charged when you sell the item on eBay).

This may be the way that Bonanza shows YOU the details of the ebay transaction and the $0.99 is in your Bonanza history to account for the additional fees. What are your total Bonanza fees for the transaction? What did you actually COLLECT from the buyer in the PayPal payment? Check your ebay and Bonanza sales records and your PayPal transactions.

UPDATED

I did some further research and found the [URL removed]

When you publish your items to ebay through the advertising feature, you agree to pay Bonanza an additional 1.5% for their help in the selling of the item. There is a checkbox that allows you to add the 1.5% back to the price of the newly listed ebay item. So a $20 Bonanza item would incur a $0.30 fee. BUT, Bonanza rounds it to the nearest 99 cents (resulting in a $20.99 ebay item) and you get to keep the extra $0.69

All of this information came from clicking on the “Information/help” box on “The Least to Know About Publishing Items on eBay” page.

thank you..nice to know. I don’t use ebay so never encountered this before

good to know. interesting way of accounting. Thank you Tom.

Thank You

I just took a few items through checkout in your booth (did not complete though) and nothing was added…

But I do know that once I used the credit card option on another site instead of paypal balance and paypal said that the seller/site can choose to charge me a $.99 to process the credit card…

I had never seen that before, but at that site they did not charge me for credit card processing..

I think that if Bonanza/or paypal is using the option to charge the fee for credit card instead of PP balances, I think we should know

No idea. I thought it might be that you are using the Bonz shipping. Then I though my bill was off, but it isn’t

Thank you, but This has nothing to do with shipping. The buyer was invoiced for this amount.

Wow that is weird. I’ve been gone for a bit, so I can only guess. Do you happen to have a sales tax set accidentally somewhere? Kinda a small amount for sales tax, but thats the only thing I can think of. I would email support and ask what it is for, especially since the buyer is getting the bill for it. Let us know if you find out

This amount is added to every sale through the “Advertise Option”

CindyBear says: July 25, 2014

Which advertise option…I have Advertise set and nothing is added. The final value fee is higher according to percentage I choose,…so, I think you need to ask support
