Ebay Fees

sugartree

Hi All,

Apologies if this has been posted recently and I have already posted this on the "up you income" forum in error . I'm confused about Ebay charges?? I know they take 10% on final selling prices and any listing fees (Although I try and wait for free listing days), but do Paypal then take fees as well??

Thanks in advance.

Yes. I think they take a small percentage + 20pence-though no doubt someone will correct me if I'm wrong

PayPal take fees on the total price including postage, the fee varies according to how much money you receive in to your account each month but assuming you are under £1500 you will be charged 3.5% +20p for each item you sell.

You can also set up a Paypal micro payments account where the fee is a flat 5%.

How would you do that?? I only do some selling and it's usually items with low bids etc, so if something sells for £1.50 by the time I have Ebay fees and Paypal fees it's hardly worth selling.
