eBay Fee Calculator

eBay's main cost is the final value fee: a percentage of the total amount the buyer pays (item price + shipping + any applicable tax). Most categories charge 13.6% on the first $7,500, then 2.35% on amounts above that. eBay also adds a flat per-order fee of $0.30 for orders under $10 or $0.40 for orders over $10.

It depends on the category. Most categories are 13.6%. Consumer Electronics are 8%. Clothing and Accessories, and Books & Media are 15.3%. Jewelry & Watches are 15%. Amounts above $7,500 are charged 2.35% regardless of category.

Yes. eBay's final value fee is calculated on the total amount the buyer pays, which includes the item price plus any shipping the buyer pays. If you charge $5 shipping on a $50 item, the fee is calculated on $55, not $50.

eBay charges a small flat fee per completed order: $0.30 for orders totaling $10 or less, and $0.40 for orders over $10. This is separate from the final value fee percentage and applies to all private sellers.

For high-value sales, eBay applies a two-tier rate. The category's standard rate applies only to the first $7,500 of the order total. Any amount above $7,500 is charged at a reduced rate of 2.35%. So selling a $10,000 item in Most Categories costs (13.6% × $7,500) + (2.35% × $2,500) + the per-order fee.
