Ebay 3 quid max selling fee

Hootsmon

Does that mean if i sold an expensive 3k guitar i would only owe them 3 quid?

stevie_the_spy

Yep plus the paypal fee if the winner paid that way

Hootsmon

Oh, what would the PP fee be on say a 3k guitar?

Hootsmon

If it sells in the subsequent 30 days from when listed, you still benefit from the discount.

I think its around 3% of the amount received into your Pay pal a/c. Ive been stung a couple of times by it, absolute rip off to my mind.

Hootsmon

you sure about that? it's the offer itself that expires on Monday?

You must list your stuff by Monday

Definitely. I've used it a few times in the past.

All items must sell in the first listing period (ie. 30 days max)

Oh yes!  Serial flippage a go-go!!

paypal fee is 3.75% to best of my knowledge.. that would be a tidy £112 fee on a £3k guitar if my arithmetic  correct.

Hootsmon

Can you do "pick up only"  with cash in hand thus avoiding PP?

My Junior is on there for 1800 if anyone wants a look see...

Just cancelled a listing for a £6k guitar to take advantage of this

Good value imho, to list something across the whole nation

Fucktits. Well done me for selling a guitar on there last week

PayPal fee on eBay is 3.4% (plus 20p, if that really matters) I sell plenty on there and have done recently, during these fee deals. So £102.20 would be the fee if it sold for £3000. And obviously add/take off shipping. 

Cheers.

Yeah cancel and relist, it works. If it auto relists it goes back to 10% so be careful with that

It really isn't. 

There are many reasons to be wary of ebay/paypal. The fees 'aint among them.
