Price the listing before it goes live
Use the exact marketplace, category, shipping setup, and cost of goods you expect to list with. That gives you a real payout baseline instead of a fee estimate from memory.
Use the real sale assumptions you would list with, not the ideal version you hope the buyer accepts.
What the official source says
- - Older eBay fee references may mention a lower broad electronics rate; this page follows the current official non-Store table.
- - If eBay lists a more specific electronics subcategory rule in the future, use that exact category instead of the broad row.
Turn the rule into a price check
For electronics, do not rely on older lower-rate shortcuts. Run the current calculator and include return risk before accepting a low offer.
Keep checking the eBay fee stack
