Ebay shelves ALL selling fees from Today 1 Oct 2024

Interesting development indeed !

Apart from occasional % off selling fees promotions, private vintage watch sellers have paid north of 10% eBay fees for watch sales.

They went free on clothing etc (to obliterate competition) a few months back.... but now it is everything, except Motors.

It's max 300 items per month and only private sellers. They had a big push to drive high volume/high value private sellers to Business Accounts last 2 months - we know why now!

God only knows how the hefty authentication admin costs of watches over £1500 will be covered if eBay not earning commission (maybe that will be a new charge in future!?) but it's a result for sellers me thinks ;-)

Ps their fast daily payout schedules also scrapped, to like it was in past where you had to request payment to bank account and c 5 days timescale now back.

PPS this is domestic sales - a (lowish) 3% fee is applied if sold abroad.

Wow, this is big news if it applies to watches. I had no idea. It seems they might introduce fees for the buyer?
