Anyone Got An Ebay/Paypal Fee Calculator

Has anyone out there got an ebay and paypal calculator - i.e. soemthing that when you input a price gives a resultant listing cost, final valuation fee or paypal fee?

It would help out my brother no end as hes just starting out on ebay and finds it difficult to calculate the % costs etc. I would help hi out but im rubbish at excel!

Thanks in advance

    On Ebay i bought an ebay cost manager for £9.99 it is by far the best thing i have bought on there. You can key in how much you bought an item for it works out the ebay fees and even paypal and then tells you how much profit you should be aiming for. It also records all your sales as you input them and shows wether you are making a profit or not and shows this in graphs etc.

    it is a very good bit of software, if ebay or paypal change their fees it can down load updates and keep it current. like i said a very worthwhile piece of software.
