    eBay iPad app questions?

    I just bought an ipad and want to start using ebay. I have an ebay app question.... If anyone else uses the eBay app for iPad or iPhone, etc, when looking at sold items, there's 2 prices. One on the listing in grey and one across the pic in green. They are both different prices. Anyone know which one is the actuall sold price? Not used to this app and the FAQs didn't help. I'm probably just too noob to find it and I apologize if it's real simple to find... Thanks!

    If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all...

    I have the Ebay app on my iphone. Mine doesn't show like that. Take a screen shot of it and post the pic.

    Question



    Here's a screenshot.

    Let me know it works. Horrible at this pic uploading stuff.

    Also I'm using the eBay app for iPad off the app store.

    Sure about that ? Some of the gray prices seem to high for shipping.

    Seller fees are based on total selling price. Item sell price plus shipping cost. It put the cabosh on people with low item price and high shipping to try to avoid eBay fees.

    True. People will still look at the price first, and some people don't factor in shipping. They figure they got a great deal on price. Someone with more money than time will click on the first link and may buy it.

    I remember before the fees changes happened. I was doing competition BBQ and needed some nice canopies. 10 x 20 steel for weight and strength. Typical cost was about $250 at the time. I found some that were $19.99 with $180 shipping. I however calculated the cost of both and they were still the cheapest. But there are those that pay no attention to the shipping thinking that all shipping will be the same no matter who they buy from.
