Typical Ebay Fees on a low cost card.
I recently sold a card through Ebay and wanted to keep track of all fees and costs involved with selling the card. Here are the details:
I sold the card for $77.11 plus $5.00 for S/H. Total: $82.11
EBAY
Bold Listing: $2.00
Gallery Plus: $.35
Final Value: $6.94
Final Value on shipping: $.45
PayPal
Final Fee: $2.68
S/H
Post Office: $4.65
Total Fees: $17.07 or just under 21% of sale price
In the end, if I wanted to make a 25% profit on this card, I would have had to bought it for less than $52.01. Just a little reality for those of us who not only collect, but also try to turn a profit every once in awhile.
