Maybe for small products where the shipping is relatively expensive? Cause that'd be like 50%.

If we approximate a credit card fee as 2% + 30 cents then I think 20% + $3.00 ends up in the same ballpark as what Amazon is pushing onto a lot of sellers. It hurts hardest for small products but it's significant for everyone.

And that price is supposedly separate from the shipping cost.
