Most Recent Posts What is eBay's and Paypal's cut?Posted 28-Jun-08 06:43:48 BST Updated 28-Jun-08 06:51:43 BST With all the different type of fees, it can be daunting to calculate how much money eBay and Paypal charged you. More importantly, what was the percent of fees paid based on your ending bid? Most eBay people think it's about 8% or as high as 12% depending on the ending bid. Well, if you start something at $1 and ends up sold at $10.00, you can pay up to 20% in fees. If it sold for $5.00, the fees can be near 28%. Plug the numbers for yourself. To reach that 10% margin, BTW, you would need to sell your items for at least $50. www.ebayfeecalc.net enjoy! |
