Am i right in thinking that if you list something on Ebay as a buy it now only, you don't get charged the 10% final value fee? 
If so, does anyone know what the actual % fee is for Buy it Nows?

If they collect the item, cash on collection and end the listing early as item no-longer for sale if no bids on it.
Save on the FVF's.0 -
Yep,....... know that trick.0

I did it recently, listed item on eBay for £1000, buyer came to view. Left deposit. Buyer appeared with cash, and paid me £960 in all.
He said to me to do it that way, as i save cash on eBay FVF and Paypal fee's.
He was right, it would of cost me £56 in extra fee's on that transaction.

You should avoid Paypal for collection items anyway as it leaves you open for a claim of non receipt and a chargeback0
