    when i ebay i go to paypal check what their cut was then take off the ebay insersion fee and then take off the postage.

    So you pop the amount in your pot, minus any fees from ebay/pp each time, so that you can keep track as you go?

    I'll give it bash, but not sure if my ikkle brain can cope :rotfl:

    Thank you purple, much appreciated :D
