Know what you’ll receive before we list.
Review your selling plan, included fees and estimated payout before you send your cards. You approve the price and any optional costs.
Estimate your payout
The add-on applies only if eBay assesses a General ad fee. Your actual advertising cost is not deducted again.
Exclude sales tax and buyer shipping. Estimate only, not an appraisal or a promised sale price.
80% of the item price
- Item sale price
- $500.00
- Included selling fee
- $100.00
- Optional promotion fee
- $0.00
A smaller percentage as value increases
20% of the first $500, 15% of the next $2,000, and 10% above $2,500 per item or approved lot. Each percentage applies only to that portion of the price.
| Item sale price | Selling fee | You receive |
|---|---|---|
| $500.00 | $100.00 | $400.00 |
| $1,000.00 | $175.00 | $825.00 |
| $5,000.00 | $650.00 | $4,350.00 |
For a $1,000 item, the fee is $100 on the first $500 plus $75 on the next $500. Approved lots use one price; unrelated individual cards are calculated separately.
Included in the selling fee
Ordinary marketplace/payment fees, listing work, photographs, buyer support, standard packing and fulfillment. Ordinary cost overruns reduce our margin, not your proceeds.
Costs agreed separately
Optional promotion adds 5% of item sale price only when eBay assesses a General advertising fee. It covers advertising at a 3% General campaign rate and management, not a 5% ad budget. More visibility is the aim; sale timing and faster payout are not guaranteed. Choose it separately when accepting your proposal. Shipping your collection to us, grading and unusual transport need a separate quote and approval.
Your cards. Your decisions.
You approve inventory, lot composition and minimum prices. Cards remain yours until sold. Eight-week selling cycle: reduce the asking price by 5% on days 14, 28 and 42, compounded from the original price and never below your approved minimum. At day 56 choose one mutually agreed eight-week renewal at a reevaluated market price, prepaid return, or discuss a separate buyout. No automatic renewal or disposal. Nothing is automatically donated or discarded.
When do I get paid?
Confirmed settlement, delivery and your agreed hold determine eligibility. The standard hold is 14 days after delivery. We process eligible, undisputed payouts on Mondays; your payment provider determines arrival. Only affected proceeds are held for a dispute. Your account shows eligible, held and recorded paid amounts; a hold does not rule out later claims.
