It's not hard to go on eBay yourself and check out their listing prices. While you're at it, you might find their Terms&Conditions helpful as well. It also couldn't hurt to look at other people's auctions and see what type of stuff is hot on the market, or not.

Yes there is a fee for the listing depending on the amount you list it for or the extra stuff you add to the auction, and the final value fees.
