Well, after straying away from eBay as my main business as using it a to basically pimp a brand and e-commerce site, I have come full circle to building up an eBay presence again. It might be to do with the fees for core listings. They are lower, and you loose less to eBay:

You can see the full download here detailing fees to £200. I have taken out the paypal withdrawl fee on this sheet as I am going to assume that no one withdraws under £50. This sheet does not include media and technology categories.

The price points are the same but I now pay less for core listings, which is were we get all the traffic from.
