    What sort of account did you open? Basic ones you pay a fee on each item sold, but others you pay a subscription. It sounds like you signed up for a Pro merchant account which is £28.75 a month link HERE

    I agree £28.75 is pro merchant, I'd phone Amazon ASAP and see if you can't persuade them that you signed up by accident. Also remove yourself from the pro merchant scheme unless you are likely to sell 30+ books a month as otherwise it is not worth it.
