You'll be looking at that sort of percentage fees through pretty much any sales channel. In my case I'm selling second-hand books, and I'm probably making more by selling through Amazon than I'd get by taking them to a second-hand bookshop, for example. Their charges are lower if you're what Amazon call a "Pro-Merchant", in which case you pay a fee of £25/month and then a lower per-item percentage. I don't sell enough through Amazon to make that worthwhile.
