After releasing my eBay UK spreadsheet a few days ago I've been getting a lot of good feedback on it. So far it's been working great for UK sellers selling on eBay.co.uk, but for U.S. sellers who happen to be selling on the eBay UK site, calculating fees and profit in their native currency (US Dollars) starts to get a little confusing.

Before today I had two versions of my eBay spreadsheet available, a US version and an Australian version. But today I'm releasing 3 new versions, a version for eBay Canada, a version for eBay UK, and a version for eBay Ireland. Which makes 5 versions in total now:
eBay.com (USA) (USD) -- View Screenshots
eBay.ca (Canada) (CAD) -- View Screenshots
eBay.com.au (Australia) (AUD) -- View Screenshots
eBay.co.uk (United Kingdom) (GBP) -- View Screenshots
eBay.ie (Ireland) (EUR) -- View Screenshots
Each of which has been updated with the latest, most up-to-date eBay and PayPal fee rates as of June 27, 2010. I'm also changing my policy. Before I would sell each spreadsheet separately, but now they're all sold together as one product, one unit. You only have to pay for one and you can download them all. Existing customers can download the new versions from my Download Area. New customers can purchase the spreadsheet for the first time here...

This spreadsheet allows you to determine exactly what it will cost to sell an item on eBay and exactly how much profit you will make. You provide the calculator with the amount of your item and it will provide you with the exact amount of eBay fees and the exact amount of PayPal fees you would expect to pay if you sold an item on eBay for that amount. The fee calculator really gets into the nitty gritty and accounts for every last little thing that might affect your fees including what category you're selling in, what level of eBay Store you have, what format you are selling in, which listing upgrades you are using and so on. Each of which plays a factor in determining what fees you will pay. You can account for product costs, shipping costs, packing costs, insurance costs, pretty much any cost that you might be incurring as a seller to accurately determine your profit. You can also use it to compare the fees for Auction Style Format vs. Fixed Price Format to determine which is a better fit for your item. You can also use it as a break-even calculator to determine the minimum price you would need to sell your item for so that you don't unintentionally lose money from the sale.
It is a profit prediction and analysis tool to allow you to better judge whether a particular item is worth selling or not based on the potential profit you would receive.

This spreadsheet helps you calculate how much it would cost to sell on PriceGrabber Storefronts. You simply enter the price of your item and you can see what your fees and profit would be in a Holiday or Non-Holiday period. For advanced users, there is a way for you to reverse calculate your fees to determine what amount to charge (or what to charge for S&H) to receive the amount you want after fees. You can keep a record of your sales using the included Sales Log worksheet or print out a chart showing what your fees would be for common amounts. You can also reverse calculate price or S&H for a large number of items at once using bonus "Markup" worksheet. If PriceGrabber ever changes their fees in the future (or you want to calculate the fees for another service) you can edit all of the fee rates used by the spreadsheet using the included "Edit Fee Rates" worksheet.
