Does anyone know how much the new fees will be?
I stumbled across this accidently when I was listing an item and noticed on the listing form a notice about new fees. I went to the "more information" click-on but it doesn't say HOW MUCH! Maybe I'm blind but I can't find the $$$$$ amount.
Anyone?
Here is the ebay info page:

Edited to add:
This has probably been discussed already but our only local ISP went belly up on the 16th and we've been this long getting it straightened out. I am apparently WAY behind on the news.

Yep, you can find the new fees at:

But here it is FYI:
***Fee Changes***
Today, we are announcing two changes to the current eBay price
structure. Effective Wednesday, January 31, 2001, we are increasing
insertion fees and adding a charge to the 10-day listing option. Final
Value fees, other feature fees and insertion fees for vehicles, eBay
Premier and Real Estate remain unchanged.
* Insertion Fees
Here are the old and new price schedules for insertion fees.
Opening Value or Reserve Price: $0.01 - $9.99
Current Insertion Fee: $0.25
New Insertion Fee: $0.30
Opening Value or Reserve Price: $10.00 - $24.99
Current Insertion Fee: $0.50
New Insertion Fee: $0.55
Opening Value or Reserve Price: $25.00 - $49.99
Current Insertion Fee: $1.00
New Insertion Fee: $1.10
Opening Value or Reserve Price: $50.00 -$199.99
Current Insertion Fee: $2.00
New Insertion Fee: $2.20
Opening Value or Reserve Price: $200 and up
Current Insertion Fee: $2.00
New Insertion Fee: $3.30
* 10-Day Listing Option
A new ten-cent ($0.10) fee will be implemented for the 10-day listing
option. The three-day, five-day and seven-day auctions will not have
an additional fee.
We recognize that price increases directly impact our sellers. The
last time Insertion fees or Final Value fees were increased was
December 1996. We will continue to build a vibrant marketplace by
investing heavily in technology, marketing and customer support to
make it possible for millions of people to discover and use eBay.
