Re: Selling a car on EBAY?
Transaction Services Fee
eBay does not charge a Final Value Fee at the close of Vehicle listings on eBay. Instead, eBay charges a Transaction Services Fee at the time of the first bid on your listing (or if you set a reserve price, at the time of the first bid over that reserve). Just like Insertion Fees, the Transaction Services Fee is either $30.00 or $40.00 depending on what it is that you are selling:
* $40.00 Transaction Services Fee for Passenger Vehicles (cars, trucks, etc.) and Other Vehicles (aircraft, buses, commercial trucks, RVs & campers, and trailers).
* $30.00 Transaction Services Fee for Motorcycles and Powersports (ATVs, high-performance go-karts, personal watercraft, scooters & mopeds, and snowmobiles)
You will not be charged a Transaction Services Fee if:
# there were no bids on your item
# there were no bids that met the reserve price on your reserve price listing
Otherwise, however, you will be charged a Transaction Services Fee whether or not you carry out the sale with the buyer.
