Well... eBay is now providing Seller reports for all Sellers with an eBay store subscription! It's included free with your monthly store fee. (not too bad considering Andale sells a similar, albeit more advanced, version for $19.95 a month!) They've been saying they'd provide this service for a while now, so it's nice to finally see it.
The report shows your total sales & total items sold for the past month. Then, your report is broken down into three sections; Auctions, Fixed Price & Store Inventory. In each section it shows you the categories your items were listed in, # of Listings, # of Successful Listings, Quantity of Items Listed, Quantity of Items Sold, # of Bids, Gross Sales($), # of Unique Buyers, % Successful Listings, % Successful Items, Bids/Listing, Bids/Item, & Average Selling Price/Item.
Here's a link to eBays page explaining the store reporting:

Replaymedia,
I agree! It would be great if they included a breakdown of your fees. (they have all the information... it would just be a matter of the right programming!) However... they might just not want you to realize how much money you are (or aren't!) making in this market!

Ebay definately doesn't want the sellers seeing how much the ebay fees are in relation to sales. Can't blame them as it may cost them some enlightened sellers.

I appreciate the reports - regarding reporting the fees, it would be nice, but I'd think a seller would already know.
