Amid the changes in pricing structure
eBay is putting into action came a slew of complaints for sellers. Most
feel that the changes will affect them negatively, increasing payouts
to eBay while lowering profit for the sellers. eBay has heard the
complaints and decided to throw some sellers a bone. Although most sellers will still end up paying more to eBay than in the past, this will help a considerable portion of the seller population.
A new
pricing schedule for media (books, music, movies and video games) will
coincide with the other changes on Feb. 20. The schedule is as follows
based on listing price:
- $0.01 – 0.99 (auction-style only)
Original Categories Insertion Fee: $ .20
New Media fee: $ .10 - $1.00 - 9.99 (auction-style and fixed price)
Original Categories Insertion Fee: $ .40
New Media fee: $ .25 - $10.00 – 24.99 (auction-style and fixed price)
Original Categories Insertion Fee: $ .60
New Media fee: $ .35
