Question

how much does it cost to sell things on ebay - or is it free ? i have only bought things from Ebay never sold lol

Answer 1

there is the basic list fee, if you use buy it now or set a reserve price there is a fee for that, if you sell something you pay a small fee for that and if you get paid with paypal there is a fee for that too.
but really its pretty cheap and simple

Answer 2

depend what you are selling and for how much... I have sold and bought many things on ebay it works like this.. Pictures cost money... for ever pic over 1 its like 25 cents.. Adding a second catagory.. which will help your item sell dubbles your fee... Making things bold or size things like that all add's up.. But most of all the more expensize the item... the higher the listing fee... And with cars there is a fee when you see it...

oh ya something like 600 dollars with a few pictures maybe some cool artwork will cost about 25 bucks to list.. A video game for ps3 45 bucks for the game will cost around 5 bucks to list it.. Hope i helped

Answer 3

I tried to sell several months ago with no success. It cost me less than $2.00 to place a picture and description on Ebay. So much depends on how good you are at describing, taking pictures of your item and pricing. I paid $15.00 for a tutorial CD which was a joke. Nothing like "hands on experience" to give you the sellers edge.
Just type in Ebay, you'll see where to join.
I understand Craigs List is almost as effective.

Answer 4

You have to pay to list things, and then pay a percentage after the item has sold.
It's not easy to give a definitive answer as to how much as there are lots of variables- whether you want a listing with a picture, for example, but here are the basics

Answer 5

20 cents to list with 1 photo
5 percent of the final price


Paypal fees are extra.
