I just submitted a Book on EBay using AMPro and I got this back for the fees:

Fees:
Insertion Fee: $0.50
Reserve Auction Fee: $0.50

Gallery Fee: $0.25
Total fees for this item: $1.25

I started bidding at .99 and set a Reserve for $15 and BIN for $20

From my calculations and the fee listings....Basic Insertion fee should have been .25 and not .50

Not a REALLY big deal, but really curious.

I believe the insertion fee is based on the $15 reserve price you selected, not the $.99.

Correct. The insertion fee is based upon the reserve amount, not the starting price.

I believe that if you had made your reserve fee $14.99, then you would have been charged only 25 cents for the insertion fee. I learned that one the hard way, too!

Once the opening bid amount, or the reserve amount, exceeds $9.99, the basic listing fee is 50 cents.
