Today, I'm here to tell you about fee adjustments for eBay.com and eBay Motors which go into effect on January 30, 2007.
Core Auction-Style and Fixed Price Listing Fees:
Insertion Fees
We're increasing the Insertion
Fee for the $1.00 to $9.99 level from thirty-five cents to forty cents.
Final Value Fees
We're increasing the Final
Value Fee for the $25.01 to $1,000.00 level from 3% to 3.25%.
Please note that there are no fee adjustments for eBay Stores or Store Inventory listings.
eBay Motors Fees
The Insertion Fees and Final
Values Fees mentioned above will also apply to eBay Motors Parts &
Accessories categories.
For eBay Motors Vehicles categories, we are making these adjustments:
- The Transaction Services Fee for both Motorcycles and Powersports is increasing from $30.00 to $40.00.
- The Transaction Services Fee for Cars & Trucks and all Other Vehicles & Trailers categories is increasing from $40.00 to $50.00.
- The Motors Reserve Fee is changing from a flat $5.00 to 0.1% of the reserve price, with a minimum of $5.00 and a maximum of $10.00. (The Reserve Fee is refunded when bidding meets the reserve price.)
Let me say that, while we believe these changes are modest, we consider any changes that may impact our sellers with great care. These adjustments are the result of careful analysis, and we believe they're the right thing to do to keep the marketplace strong for our eBay.com and eBay Motors sellers.
To learn more about each of these changes, I invite you to read our Frequently Asked Questions and our eBay Fees Help page. (To learn more about Canada fee adjustments, please check the Announcement Board for eBay.ca.)
