    Hello everyone,

    Silly question time again - I have read through the T&Cs for this offer and think I understand but just wanted to clarify my befuddled thinking.

    I want to list some items that I have more than one of each item (can't think of the term at the moment) but basically "Gadget A x 5". If all five of these sell (assuming that I don't list anything else) then all five sales will be at £2 max FVF, is that correct?

    Thank you (again) for any help.
  • I haven't looked at the terms and conditions, but knowing the way eBay work, no, that would be £2 final value fee per item.

    Ah, yes, sorry. I didn't word that vey well, did I? I meant £2 FVF per sale (so 5 sales @ £2 each = £10 if all the items sold) providing that they all sell in the first listing period.

    Just querying it as the private seller listings will (to my knowledge) only let you have one item per listing in order to qualify for the £1 FVF offers. But maybe they expect business sellers to have more than one of any item?

    The offer is for transactions so you can list 10,000 items if you wish and the listings can have any quantity, eBay will then charge 5%, or 6.9% for Managed Payments, capped at £2 for the first 100 transactions that take place.

    If you list a quantity of 5 and someone buys two together then as far as I can see the cap should apply to the whole transaction and you wouldn't pay £2 twice.

    Those fees are plus VAT so 6% / 8.28% capped at £2.40 for those who are not VAT registered and claiming the VAT back.  

    Worth noting that generally using the relist option means the listing wont apply for the promotion, using sell similar should do, creating a listing from scratch will do.
