Any chance of a five quid sketch post free?
ReplyDeleteAfraid not. It'd still cost me a couple of pounds to post it and eBay take 12.8% of sale costs so it wouldn't be worth my time. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteBasically after eBay take 12.8% plus their .30p listing fee I'd be left with £4.06, and then postage costs taken from that and I'd end up with about £2. Sorry, I'm not doing that.
ReplyDeleteyeah, the eBay payment system change has been.. interesting.. in theory, it's .1% less fees then before (if you don't use paypal).. in practice? ... well.. if you still wanna use paypal, it's a higher fee amount.
ReplyDeleteand of course, as a freelance artist, you would have.. whatever the modern form of income tax is to pay ontop of that.. depending on how much you make in a year.. that's like 20% - 45%... sometimes cheaper to set yourself up as a company of one and pay corporation tax as a Limited company.. but this is going out of my field..
I haven't been earning enough the last couple of years to make it viable to set myself up as a limited company. I looked into it years ago at my accountant's suggestion but it's only viable if you can maintain an income that's above minimal wage. Otherwise you end up declaring your company bankrupt and that creates its own problems.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, thanks for bidding, and winning, the artwork Ryan. Will post it off tomorrow!
