eBay Selling Fees

Selling on eBay does not cost you much! When you list an item on eBay, you’re charged an insertion fee. If the item sells, you are also charged a final value fee. The total cost of selling an item is the insertion fee plus the final value fee.

The basic fee structure depends on the type of listing you use.

Insertion Fee

• An Insertion Fee is a listing fee. It is the price eBay charges for listing your item for sale.
• This fee is charged to your seller's account at the time of listing.
• As with a newspaper ad, you need to pay this basic listing fee, even if your item is not sold. If your item sells, a Final Value Fee is charged to your seller's account.
• Insertion Fees are not refundable.

Final value Fee

When your item sells or ends with a winning bid your seller account is charged a final value fee based on the item's final sale price and category.
