Do i pay Vendio fees in addition to eBay and Amazon fees? If so, why do i want it? If not, how do i customize my listings and know what i'll be paying for them?

Here's an illuminating bit of information, which would've been nice to tell me somewhere early in the process, but instead i found it in a pdf about setting up my Amazon account.
"To use Vendio integration with Amazon, a Pro Merchant account is required."
This same document seems to imply that yes, i will be paying Amazon fees in addition to Vendio fees. Which implies the same for eBay. I wouldn't mind a bit if i had been clearly informed at the outset.
I'm all for simplicty but not if it obscures the facts. I'm trying not to get burned up here but the omissions of fact as (not) presented to a first-time visitor to this service definitely imply that for $10/mo plus "Success" fees, i can sell my wares in all three places.
Unfortunately, yes, regardless of where you choose to list your items from - both Amazon and eBay still charge you for their own listing fees outside of any costs you incur from the third party service you use to manage your inventory across the different venues simultaneously.
