Listing Fees - Ebay?

Hi - New seller on ebay - when do you pay your listing fee's?

Ive put ten items on ebay, one has sold, 1 has a bid on it and 9 have watchers. Ebay is asking me to pay total for all items - I didnt think you got charged if no one bidded?

Help :confused:

  • What did you start at? 99p or below is free, anything starting at more than that you have to pay a fee for.

  • £20 - i know i need to pay the fees but just wondered when you pay for them? Before or after the auction had ended? It said on ebay its monthly but doesnt say when its due?

    Am i right when i put that you dont pay if they dont sell?

    Thanks

    No if you list as a private seller for more than 99p you pay the fees no matter waht. If your item sells you have to pay a Final Value fee as well and Paypal fees . Ebay Fees HERE Paypal Fees HERE

    You have to pay monthly. You normally have to give a payment method for them to automatically be charged. You can also make one off payments whenever you want. But you will get an invoice for the fees from them. I pay mine once a week as if you sell a lot and they go for good prices its amazing how fast it mounts up.
    If you accept paypal they will take their fee automatically from the money recieved as you get it.
  • ahh ok thanks! Ive sold 4 things - 2 have been collection and they have paid for them cash on collection and 2 have gone through paypal - Paypals took their fees, just wasnt sure about the ebay fees. still got 6 more itmes with 2 days left on so i will pay for them soon. Thanks for replies x
