I'm trying to work out the final cost of the sale..

If I've got this right, for a low volume shop it's £19.99 per month (inc VAT), 10% per item final value inc' shipping (fixed price sale) and around 2.5-3% if the customer pays with Paypal?

Seems you also need a feedback of 10 before you can register a shop? How?

Forget the shop for now. Just get some sales under your belt.

It doesn't sound like you a very familiar with eBay, so before you go crazy Id stick on a few basic listings and sell some stuff. Get an idea how the platform works, Messages, Resolution cases, listing practises etc...

Selling on eBay is easy, BUT being good and successful isn't. Try and get to grips with the site first...
Got the business account now so as you say I'll just list a few starters and see how it progresses. Mainly a marketing tool and search result boost for a start anyway, might get run alongside ecommerce in future.

I hooked up with SagePay and next thing I know I've got PayPal calling asking to help setup a PayPal option on my site? Surprised me they were working together.
