Paypal Fee Calculator

studentdave

Hey

I came across this great site, so I thought I'd post it

It calculates your fees on paypal

On default, the currency is in $'s but can changed to £'s

Very handly tool!

Can help to budget more accurately

Note: Does not include ebay listing fees

nice find, thanks

does anyone have similar for ebay fees?

studentdave

Yeap

Check this one out from ebay

http://pages.ebay.co.uk/calculator/advanced.html

Note: ebay charge you a listing fee, then a Final Value fee based on how much your item is sold for. Then paypal charge you a fee and if your item is sold below £50 they charge you to transfer fee if you wish to transfer funds to a bank account

Some might say this is unfair play as ebay and paypal are one organisation which charges you so many fees that rip through your profit margins

wow

thanks for this student dave, i have always tried to work out the paypal fees but always takes me along time!

i personally think these paypal fees are too high!

and i cant believe that if you have under £50 in your paypal account they charge you 25p to transfer it into your bank

how come its always free in the usa, us british pay for everything!!

Hi,

Another eBay/Paypal calculator that may help is: ecal online calculator.
I got it from this tools page a while back - both are pretty handy.

I use this one:

It not only calulates the fees, but the profit too.

I just use a calculator

I use this one as it does the auction fees plus Paypal fees http://www.ebaycalculator.co.uk/

There's also a free downloadable Excel version which I use more now.

After working out what Ebay take on listing/final value fees on an item that didn't climb higher than it's 99p start price PLUS the cost of receiving the payment and actual £3.50 shipping cost via Paypal it makes me wonder sometimes why I bother and have started giving stuff away on Freecycle instead. Less hassle and far happier customers.
