Remember to count the ebay/paypal fees...at approx 10%-14% on buy it nows..sales of $5700 have ebay/paypal fees of $600-$800. A seller has to make a 30-40% return just to pocket a 20% profit. If you buy something for $75 and sell it for $100, it's not 33% profit... ebay/ paypal gets $11.75 out of your $100 sale..so it's buy for $75 sell for $100...profit = $13.25.

I don't think the fees are quite that much on higher dollar items. They go down considerably after the first $1000, as low at 2% I believe.

I never looked to see the average price per sale for this seller but yes it's true the higher the value of the item the lower the fees, but a $2000 card still costs you $142.50 in ebay /paypal fees.
If you sell 10 $200 cards your fees would be about $205.00 for that same $2000 sale.
