While Ebay has made selling on the platform pretty simple, they certainly haven’t applied the same philosophy to their fees!
As their seller fees for businesses with shop subscriptions depend on the category or sub-category that the product you are selling falls into, which is why we created our Ebay Fee and Profit Margin Calculator to hopefully make your life easier.
We have tried to make it as easy to use as possible and all you need is:
- The sale price, including any shipping you charged
- How much you paid for the item
- Select which category you are selling it in
- Enter your shipping and any additional costs you may have incurred
And the calculator does the rest, one thing we couldn’t include was the lower fees that Ebay charge on items over $2,500 for most categories, instead we just use the main final value fee percentage as this is probably going to apply to most people using this calculator.
There are a couple of categories that have numbers in brackets next to them as they include a number of sub-categories, which we have expanded upon below the calculator.
Both the Computers & Tablets and the Consumer Electronics have a few sub-categories with different fees and these are listed in the tables below:
