If you're keeping track based on what has been "reclaimed", you don't need to deduct the original purchase price of each transaction because you've already done that. All your other deductions/additions (fees, shipping, etc..) are relevant...but that one should not be, IMO.

You've technically, not actually made a profit, until you exceed the $58.74 purchase price...but I think you're closer to that goal then you think you are.

Just my "2 cents" , and somebody please correct me if I'm wrong, or have explained that horribly.
Thanks Dave...I see what you're saying. I'm either doing my math wrong, or comparing apples to oranges...maybe both.

It's probably the latter...where I'm calling it "total reclaimed", I should be calling it "total profit".
