The Best of the Best
eBay’s fees chart can be rather hard to find on their site. To save you some trouble hunting, here are the fees for auction style listings:
Auction-style format listings
Starting or reserve price
| Starting or reserve price | Insertion fees |
| $0.01 – $0.99 | Free up to 100 listings* |
| $1.00 – $9.99 | $0.25 |
| $10.00 – $24.99 | $0.50 |
| $25.00 – $49.99 | $0.75 |
| $50.00 – $199.99 | $1.00 |
| $200.00 – $499.99 | $2.00 |
| $500.00 or more | $4.00
|
*Your first 100 single-quantity auction-style listings in a month won’t be charged an insertion fee if:
-
Your starting price is between $0.01 and $0.99, and
-
There is no reserve price
When your starting price is between $0.01 and $0.99, after your 100th listing in a month, you’ll be charged a $0.10 insertion fee per listing. In addition, for all auction-style listings with a start price between $0.01 and $0.99 that have a reserve price, a $0.10 insertion fee per listing will apply.
You’ll notice that it makes sense not to start an item at $10.00. A penny less saves you 20 cents in most categories! $24.99 instead of $25.00 saves 45 cents and $49.99 instead of $50.00 saves a dollar!
