What's included
This compares the fees every DE business seller pays on a sale: eBay's and Etsy's referral, transaction or final-value fee, payment processing, and any per-order, listing or regulatory operating fee. It excludes VAT charged on marketplace fees, which is reclaimable if you are VAT-registered — so the platforms line up on what they actually keep.
