Fees explanation when pushing an item to ebay?

Good morning again everyone

My question is about how to calculate the fees I am going to pay for an item that sells on eBay after been pushed from Bonanza to eBay. I do not understand the whole process of calculating fees.

When pushing an item to eBay from Bonanza, if the item sell on eBay, what are the final Total fees?

Does it mean that if I push an item to Ebay and it sells for $100:
– Paypal takes 3% commission = in my sample $3
– eBay takes 10% commission = in my sample $10
– Bonanza takes 13% commission = in my sample $13

So Will I be paying a total of 26% in commission? = $26 ?

Anyone that could explain this process?

From Bonanza’s advertising help page >> [URL removed]

“Bonanza charges a flat 1.5% of the price for any items sold on eBay through Bonanza. When you setup your eBay publishing, there is a checkbox that allows you to automatically increase the price of your eBay listings to cover Bonanza’s 1.5% fee.

We charge this fee for two reasons. The first is that it helps us cover the cost of maintaining and developing our eBay integration. The second is that there are many cases where we will be advertising an item on your behalf, spending money in Google or Bing to get your item sold, but then it sells on eBay before Bonanza. The 1.5% we earn is a small way to offset the money we spend advertising your item."

The following is MY interpretation>>

The MAXIMUM commission fees for an item that Bonanza sends to and sells on ebay will be 11.5% (ebay’s 10% + Bonanza’s flat fee of 1.5% ). PayPal is entirely separate from ebay and Bonanza when it comes to calculating commissions when an item is sold. If you use PayPal, you’re going to pay the (approximately) 3% fee to PayPal regardless of where the item sells. That means that your $100 item should cost you a total of $14.50 (14.5%) when you include ebay fees, Bonanza fees and PayPal fees.

I’d be interested in a confirmation from Bonanza for this. I’d be very interested in 11.5% but not so much at +/- 23% ADMIN? Answer?

Would you be kind enough to post here some link with information you’ve found about this fee numbers?

It’s the first time that I see those commission fees …
