Many weeks ago I lowered my max advertising rate to 9%.
Sold an item the other day and was charged 11.1%.
Anybody know why?
Thanks!!

Cindy, what was the value of the item sold? If it was a lower priced item, that sometimes is the reason. For instance, the minimum fee is .50, so for a low-priced item, it can be over the percentage you select.

Also, note…that when your booth was set at the higher rate, ads went out based on that rate and sometimes when an item sells after you lowered the ad rate, it still had a number of ad clicks at the higher rate..I have had this happen before.
Always good to keep track how many ad clicks a listing has…
But as Book says..an item costing $4.00 will have a $.50 fvf which is 11.1%

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
