Oh yeah i had to bump up my prices just a bit and i going to bump it up again cause in 2022 if you make over $600 you get a 1099K. I always stopped before the $20,000 so i did not get a 1099K so yeah i will bump prices up again for the damn taxes F****K YOU government/Biden!
Just sold an auto accessory on ebay on 12-14-20 for 193.44 (which included shipping and tax) and was charged $36.88 in fees! That's roughly 19%! See ya later Ebay!
@enlil7billion they are so oblivious! Their customer service is garbage too. It is near impossible to talk to a live human being. Then we have to wait for them to call us..?! No thanks.
Man it ridiculous fees plus now government charging tax too it really a ripped off. I wish one day president Trump cut off the tax when the poor people buying a second hands stuffs. Because it didn’t make sense it the same item but tax go on over and over so crazy.
They do that because people were selling a $20 item for $1 and then charging the customer $30 for shipping. I understand why they did that, but the 13% final sale fee they charge us is the ridiculous part. That's the true robbery. There is NO WAY the platform, the advertising or customer acquisition is worth paying 13%.
I must say you more. When ebay takes SALES TAX from customer (!) oversees, I must pay as a sellet final value fee tax also from this tax! + international fee 1.6% (selling overseas) + conversion fee from USD to EUR.
@Take a Picture it'll last Longer Yeah... It's like.. I'm trying to ship an item that will cost me $25, but I'm only going to charge $20, and then ebay and paypal still all want a piece of that $20.... So pathetic........... I'm considering not even selling my item now. It's like making pennies while they rob me and my buyer clean.
So I’m selling a product at 28.95... I see on my transaction I’m getting paid 24.99 that’s almost a 14% fee and aside from that I offer free shipping which is around $4-5... so I still need to pay my shipping fee and eBay still took a fee of my TOTAL sale including shipping?! WTF I actually end up with a $20 transaction
you didn't mention that the previous FVF ignores taxes where as the new one does not. if you sell an item for 100$ and there is a 10% sales tax $100 + $10 = $110. the new FVF fee is 12.35% of the TOTAL INCLUDING TAX (12.35% of $110). Fee total = $13.58 In the old system is would be 2.9% PayPal on the total. 2.9% of $110 = $3.19, and 10% on $100 = $10. Fee total = $13.19. eBay cut out the middle man and managed to increase your fees (unless there's no sales tax) Honestly fuck eBay.
Great video. I believe the fees are charged on the item and the shipping total. Example is if you sell an item for $10 and the shipping was $3 , eBay will charge you fees on the $13. They are tricky
Wanted to start listing products. Thanks for the info. I will take my business elsewhere for now until that business loses their marbles too. Then I'm moving again. Lol
Hey, bud...you rock! I've avoided this since 1998 and yet have always wanted to do this. I have great products..personal, etc. and now... Wow! thanks. . You are my tutor and Im going to study your videos all day. yippee! A way!!! and the day will come when I can open up Closet Pri....as my Store.. but will wait for ..50 sales at least. thanks! Ya give me hope.
I just don't get how Ebay can charge the 12.55% on top of postage and shipping/handling, which is paid by the buyer, but we use our labor and gas to get that item into the shipping stream, and the shipper's services have already been paid for.
1:20 - The problem with eBay charging 30p for a transaction, is that when you refund a buyer because for example their address is wrong or whatever other reason, eBay will NOT refund you the 30p transaction fee, but PayPal does! Also, at 2:12 - You mention Australia and show the fees on screen, so if that $0.30 is in Australian Dollars, then as of 21/03/2021 in GBP you would be paying almost 50% less in transaction fee, as $0.30 AUD is £0.17 GBP, but for UK eBay sellers the transaction fee is £0.30 GBP, which is $0.54 AUD. Moreover, Google telling me eBay owns PayPal even though they are operating seperately, which means they actually could be profiting from that 0.30 units of whatever currency they are using to charge for...
I was starting to list items- now reconsidering based on the info here and subsequent comments. That's a pretty huge piece of the pie given all the legwork the seller does.
Hi There Samson. Im thinking of starting an ebay store to sell unwanted items as we are downsizing. Is there a starter store in Australia or is basic the lowest priced store??
Not loving this change. I preferred having immediate access to funds. Also I kept a good amount in PayPal and used my paypal debit to buy things. Now I have to wait a processing day, then the day of deposit, and idk, hopefully I will get the funds on the 3rd day? Also yes, seems more expensive already...maybe in the long run I'll appreciate something about this but right now I'm feeling like they push you into this and it's not something I would have preferred.
It has definitely been a rough start. Hopefully they iron out the issues soon and managed payments will become a much smoother process, fingers crossed. Thanks for sharing your experience.👍
@Max Kellerman they charge you to list shit. There is no way to profit on ebay after 2011 when they dipped in on the total sale charging fees on the shipping also.
I have a store and still have so many fees....whats the use of all the work u do...im done I'm closing my store....fees fees fees fees. Their robbing us all ...
It was worth paying pay pal the 3% to have my hard earned money instantly then having th inconvenience of managed payment to Ebay...I rather go to depop or posh mark .. It won't be surprising if later they charge us 2.??% later down the line just like mercari
Good video mate., hey if I list customised sneakers up the on EBay and then decide to pull them down for some reason do I still incur a fee or not ? Appreciate feedback mate
eBay are no longer charging final value fees at the end of the month. The only fees they will charge then are store fees (which haven't changed), and insertion fees. Thanks for watching 👍🏼
I stopped selling on ebay years ago...the fees seemed to get ridiculous. looking at them again....Man...They charge Fee on the Shipping too...that sucks but udnerstand why they did it because of people messing some. Take the Haslab Galactus which costs 425 bucks with tax. figuring on selling it for like 700 bucks total with shipping...12.5% final value fee, plus 50$ (?) roughly paid to ship it ...only make 140 bucks...good? considering time/effort and cost of the original figure. ugh. I do think about these Fees now when I buy stuff from Sellers and Understand why things are higher and except it more.
Hello!buyer also pays a 10% fee when buying a products?Because i sold a product for 79$, buyer payed 89$, and i still need to pay final value fees.Does buyer pay 10% and I also need to pay 10%?
When I am selling items from Europe to US I pay up to 20% form total amount of transaction. Its very high. There are stupid "international fee" and currency conversion rate. Also, if buyer pays State's "Sales tax" I also pay my final value free from this amount. This is completely crazy, because this money is payed by customer to the State, not to me.
I used to sell a lot on Ebay but have;nt for a couple of yrs , just recently I listed a item & accepted a offer and I could'nt believe for a $350 item sold I was being charged $48.00 or there abouts in fees , but now they have the direct payment into my acc: I thought it was going to be faster to get payment & less hassle . As the buyer paid as soon as I accepted his offer but the money has'nt turned up to me yet , have you any idea how long they take to actually make the deposit , I'm only asking as the item was someone elses and I have to give their their money as soon as I get it .thanks for taking the time to read my question .
when you says ebay charges you as soon as you sell the item. do you mean as soon as the item is sold they take amount from the the amount the customer has paid and you get the rest. or you need to have an account that ebay can take money from until you get the money?
I think the key points that you missed out here are that eBay have just decided they want a bigger slice of your 'profit' under any circumstances. If a buyer comes to my house and paid in cash, PayPal was not involved - so no PayPal fees were made. Now the 'PayPal' fee is rolled into the Final Value Fee, so use PP or not, you still end up paying for it. Fair play? You decide. Secondly, eBay having to pay PP transaction fees? And there I was thinking that PP was a wholly owned subsidiary of eBay. Finally, it's a bit rich of eBay to ban any 'transaction surcharges' for sellers, when if they feel that they are 'allegedly' having to transaction pay fees, they just move the goalposts, and charge everyone more! Still, it's the same all over the World - One law for them, and another for the 'rest of us'......
Sold an item today when can I expect the payout? I’m assuming straight to the bank but when I was used to PayPal having the money once the buyer sent the money
they caused me to oferdraft because the money wasnt in paypal so i could pay for the shipping label. so i didnt make any money on the item i sold. plus now a $32 overdraft fee at my bank. plus they now have your ssn to do with it whatever they want.
Hey samson awesome vid !i have a question and need some help? Im trying to sell a few (5 or so) trading cards from my collection but all these INVOICE comments are scaring me away because im confused , Will i receive a $200 bill from ebay that i now owe for just trying to sell a card ? Or how do i have a more exact idea of what i will be charged ? Can you please help with this example, lets say i just have a regular account and want to post 1 listing for a card at the price of $550.00 i need to know what i will have to pay and will there still be a ebay monthly invoice? Or does that only apply to someone with a store ? Thanks in advance for any help it’s much appreciated 👍😁
Hi mate, glad you enjoyed the video. I am not sure what is going on with the $200 invoice comments and have stopped responding to them. If you don't pay for a store and are only using your 200 free listings then you will not be invoiced any final value, insertion or store fees under managed payments, your fees will be deducted automatically. Hope this helps!👍
Question, how can I pay my fees honestly? When I want to pay I can't select PayPal as a method and that's the only that shows up. When I want to select an automatic payment method it says the card is not supported while it is even added on my PayPal account.
QUESTION I have sold 1000$ worth of items do I need to manually pay them toe do they take it out of my account also they I just got banned for no reason what do you think it’s about?
No, you don't need to pay manually. And honestly I have no way of knowing why you were banned, I would recommend reaching out to customer service to start.
Hello, I have a question about ebay I was wondering if you could help me. I mistakenly bought a bicycle that was posted for local pick up only from a man in california, I live in illinois and I can't pick it up. I messed the guy a few times and he won't answer and today he said the transaction was completed. Does the seller have to show proof that the item was given to me or is he able to just rip me off like that?
When does eBay take their seller fee. I just started selling items on eBay, but my PayPal balance shows how much I made only subtracting the PayPal fee. Why didn’t eBay take their fee?
Now guys, if you're selling outside your own country, which most of us are, for example, to the USA, the US$ could have been transferred out of PayPal in US$ to your bank account. Your bank can do the conversion at a much better rate. Now, eBay will transfer funds, without the option to retain the original currency, with a MASSIVE currency conversion penalty. Look into it... they're not telling anyone about it, and you have NO CHOICE. This is a big cost.... After 16 years, we're leaving eBay due to the new system.
If i just sold 1 product this month and i got a 3 dollar fee and then i stop selling next month, would i still get fees that month if i didnt sell anything?
Do you know when the 200 free listing kick in? I've been back on ebay since Feb and still only have 49 listing capacity, even though I've had my account since 2005.
It seems like managed payments will be plus going forward. I didn't understand the $20 Paypal fee on a charhe back. Does that mean if a customer has a return then sellers are charge $20 for processing?
No, returns will still be dealt with between you and the buyer. If the buyer charges back their payment on Paypal (basically cancels the transaction by telling Paypal it was accidental) then the fee will be incurred. This is very rare but does occasionally;y happen.
Sold my first item on eBay days ago then I saw something called monthly sellers fees?? Are these fees on what I sell or will be deducted monthly even if I don’t sell?
I’m not old enough to have a bank account, is payouts mandatory? I just sold my first item (it took off $43.29) . Will I still get the money that wasn’t taken by eBay?
Thanks for the video. I’m extremely disappointed. Just sold on EBay a pair of brand leather boots for $45 ( Retail $120) and got an email “ EBay is transferring to my bank $32.85”. Excuse me?
Those eyes are beautiful. Yeah ,wish I saw your video before I had to go read up all those details on ebay.. At least your video confirmed my understanding of what's happening. With that said, I'm not sure if it's worth dealing with the $20 dispute fee... There are jerks out there that dispute for no reason right... who knows. Anyone else have their input on this??... I'm just a regular seller trying to get rid of my hoarded items. :) Not a power seller.
I used to pay 9% on eBay and pay 3% to Paypal. So 12% just sold an item on EBay after about a year. Now they cut out PayPal but my fee is 12.9% now, which is .9% more fees. I still use PayPal and I haven't been paid by eBay yet. It's been 2 days.
Hi Samson, i've been watching your videos. Thank you so much! But how do sellers manage free postage with products below 9dollars when parcels cost 9+ dollars + all these fees? Hope you can enlighten me😅
I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that we have to pay a final value fee on tax. That shouldn't even be legal. In my opinion eBay shouldn't even be charging tax. I mean when I bought the item tax was paid on it. Why is it every time someone resales it they get a tax again?
Very interesting, so you can still use pay pal, you can use both? Do I have to register for ebay payment management system or it just kicks in? 200 free listening a month wow that awesome, still only have 40 from the 1st of August to the 1st of September so hoping that starts on the 1st of September.
I was planning to list a couple of items soon and am now confused. So after a sale, Ebay deducts their fee's then they proceed to deposit the remainder in to your checking account?
FYI the 30c fixed fee has nothing to do with paypal. Also chargebacks occur when someone disputes a transaction that appears on their credit card/bank account. Paypal does not have to be a party to a transaction for a chargeback to occur.
Thanks for the info, I assumed the 30c fee was to cover the fee eBay would have to pay Paypal when a buyer uses the service to pay? As far as the charge-backs I agree that is a good explanation, buyers essentially tell Paypal (via their bank) that the payment was illegitimate/not made by them/fraud etc. 👍🏼
@@SamsonTV No Buyers are no longer required to use paypal to pay for purchases. They can use credit cards, google pay, apple pay, after pay etc and they can instigate a chargeback through any of those channels. If they haven't used paypal to pay, then paypal has no involvement whatsoever.
That is true, but if they use Paypal then a 30c would be incurred, therefore eBay would need to charge that to sellers. Which is, I think, why they are adding the 30c fee.
I haven't sold in years and just started selling to get rid of personal items I don't need anymore and HOLY CRAP the fees are ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Special duration fee, final value fee, final fee on shipping. Oh wait it gets better, Paypal decides it want's to play too!!!! Paypal fee!!! Booyah!!!!!!!
Wanna know how ebay gets $165 on an item you paid $1000 for? Ebay takes a 75% cut of profits AFTER they've padded your item's sell price. You will only make $50 while bay makes $165. Your return on investment is 5%. There's the magic rip off. How much of your $50 is really left from the time you spent creating the ad, taking pics, taking it to the post office adding insurance?
I just started selling this week and they automatically made it so all money goes through PayPal. Isn't this more expensive for me? I don't like PayPal and would prefer direct deposit
I want to go back to paypal but I cant find any option , in ebay doesnt exist customer service, they only put some questions with their answer that they want .
No wonder everyone bumped all their prices up on eBay and I don’t blame them, eBay is literally mr krabs from spongebob 😭
Oh yeah i had to bump up my prices just a bit and i going to bump it up again cause in 2022 if you make over $600 you get a 1099K.
I always stopped before the $20,000 so i did not get a 1099K so yeah i will bump prices up again for the damn taxes F****K YOU government/Biden!

Finally, it's a bit rich of eBay to ban any 'transaction surcharges' for sellers, when if they feel that they are 'allegedly' having to transaction pay fees, they just move the goalposts, and charge everyone more! Still, it's the same all over the World - One law for them, and another for the 'rest of us'......
Sold an item today when can I expect the payout? I’m assuming straight to the bank but when I was used to PayPal having the money once the buyer sent the money
Transaction times vary but usually 3-4 days.
they caused me to oferdraft because the money wasnt in paypal so i could pay for the shipping label. so i didnt make any money on the item i sold. plus now a $32 overdraft fee at my bank. plus they now have your ssn to do with it whatever they want.
Hey samson awesome vid !i have a question and need some help?
Im trying to sell a few (5 or so) trading cards from my collection but all these INVOICE comments are scaring me away because im confused ,
Will i receive a $200 bill from ebay that i now owe for just trying to sell a card ? Or how do i have a more exact idea of what i will be charged ?
Can you please help with this example, lets say i just have a regular account and want to post 1 listing for a card at the price of $550.00 i need to know what i will have to pay and will there still be a ebay monthly invoice?
Or does that only apply to someone with a store ?
Thanks in advance for any help it’s much appreciated 👍😁
Hi mate, glad you enjoyed the video. I am not sure what is going on with the $200 invoice comments and have stopped responding to them. If you don't pay for a store and are only using your 200 free listings then you will not be invoiced any final value, insertion or store fees under managed payments, your fees will be deducted automatically. Hope this helps!👍
Question, how can I pay my fees honestly? When I want to pay I can't select PayPal as a method and that's the only that shows up. When I want to select an automatic payment method it says the card is not supported while it is even added on my PayPal account.
I honestly don't know why that would be. Try contacting eBay support. I have a video on how to do that: ruclips.net/video/qA1dNVO3bAM/видео.html
@@SamsonTV I will try that thank you for your reply!
I'm thinking of selling pokemon cards for cheep, will i lose money because of this?
In my experience they take 16 to 20% of your total price.

QUESTION
I have sold 1000$ worth of items do I need to manually pay them toe do they take it out of my account also they I just got banned for no reason what do you think it’s about?
No, you don't need to pay manually. And honestly I have no way of knowing why you were banned, I would recommend reaching out to customer service to start.
Hello, I have a question about ebay I was wondering if you could help me. I mistakenly bought a bicycle that was posted for local pick up only from a man in california, I live in illinois and I can't pick it up. I messed the guy a few times and he won't answer and today he said the transaction was completed. Does the seller have to show proof that the item was given to me or is he able to just rip me off like that?
What is delivery fees. I have a shop and just paid 13.6% how does that work
I only sell one item for $18.98 each free shipping. Only $16.10 is getting to my bank account per sale. This is over 15%. Surely something is wrong?
Ebay motors charged me $79 for listing a car that never got 1 view much less 1 bid. Do I get that fee back. It was a no sell
Very interesting thanks for sharing good content give us an idea thats good explanation keep safe God bless you enjoy keep on vlogging
Thanks for watching!👍
When does eBay take their seller fee. I just started selling items on eBay, but my PayPal balance shows how much I made only subtracting the PayPal fee. Why didn’t eBay take their fee?
eBay will charge the fee at the end of the month if your not on managed payments.
I am done with ebay, the fee increase is CRAZY!
Now guys, if you're selling outside your own country, which most of us are, for example, to the USA, the US$ could have been transferred out of PayPal in US$ to your bank account. Your bank can do the conversion at a much better rate. Now, eBay will transfer funds, without the option to retain the original currency, with a MASSIVE currency conversion penalty. Look into it... they're not telling anyone about it, and you have NO CHOICE. This is a big cost....
After 16 years, we're leaving eBay due to the new system.
If i just sold 1 product this month and i got a 3 dollar fee and then i stop selling next month, would i still get fees that month if i didnt sell anything?
Great video man! From one ebay seller to another, Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Can you help me? I am not selling on ebay now, i dont have any listings. How can i stop the sellers fee? Thank you.
Do you know when the 200 free listing kick in? I've been back on ebay since Feb and still only have 49 listing capacity, even though I've had my account since 2005.
I believe it will be when managed payments are fully rolled out, however no date has been given.👍
It seems like managed payments will be plus going forward. I didn't understand the $20 Paypal fee on a charhe back. Does that mean if a customer has a return then sellers are charge $20 for processing?
No, returns will still be dealt with between you and the buyer. If the buyer charges back their payment on Paypal (basically cancels the transaction by telling Paypal it was accidental) then the fee will be incurred. This is very rare but does occasionally;y happen.
Sold my first item on eBay days ago then I saw something called monthly sellers fees?? Are these fees on what I sell or will be deducted monthly even if I don’t sell?
In my paypal summary i see an ebay fee taken out but still get an invoice at the end of the month. why is thi?
Payments are only through Paypal?
eBay is also charging a final value fee of the sale including the sales tax.
I’m not old enough to have a bank account, is payouts mandatory? I just sold my first item (it took off $43.29) . Will I still get the money that wasn’t taken by eBay?
Can you use a parents account? Unfortunately you do need a bank account.
If we list items on eBay, do they charge every month fee, supposed not selling any item?
So on the final value sale of an item does that include what the buyer pays for shipping? Or is that just the product price? Anyone.
Thanks for the video. I’m extremely disappointed. Just sold on EBay a pair of brand leather boots for $45 ( Retail $120) and got an email “ EBay is transferring to my bank $32.85”. Excuse me?
Those eyes are beautiful. Yeah ,wish I saw your video before I had to go read up all those details on ebay.. At least your video confirmed my understanding of what's happening. With that said, I'm not sure if it's worth dealing with the $20 dispute fee... There are jerks out there that dispute for no reason right... who knows. Anyone else have their input on this??... I'm just a regular seller trying to get rid of my hoarded items. :) Not a power seller.
I used to pay 9% on eBay and pay 3% to Paypal. So 12% just sold an item on EBay after about a year. Now they cut out PayPal but my fee is 12.9% now, which is .9% more fees. I still use PayPal and I haven't been paid by eBay yet. It's been 2 days.
Hi Samson, i've been watching your videos. Thank you so much! But how do sellers manage free postage with products below 9dollars when parcels cost 9+ dollars + all these fees?
Hope you can enlighten me😅
I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that we have to pay a final value fee on tax. That shouldn't even be legal. In my opinion eBay shouldn't even be charging tax. I mean when I bought the item tax was paid on it. Why is it every time someone resales it they get a tax again?
Is there an online calculator available for the new management payments? Great video by the way!
Yes! here is the link: www.ebayfeescalculator.com/usa-ebay-calculator/
@@SamsonTV thank you so much for your prompt reply! I am so glad I subscribed to your channel!
@@MaureenBT You can also find spreadsheets online or make one that can easily calculate the fees when you key in the information :)
@@julial3758 thank you Julia! Do you have a link?
Very interesting, so you can still use pay pal, you can use both? Do I have to register for ebay payment management system or it just kicks in? 200 free listening a month wow that awesome, still only have 40 from the 1st of August to the 1st of September so hoping that starts on the 1st of September.
Yes, buyers will still be able to pay via Paypal. I believe there will be a registration process but it will be required quite soon.
What am i doing wrong i checked my invoice. I sold pants for $50. $5.45 for transaction fee and $12.50 for supplemental fees disbursed.
Definitely contact eBay customer support.
I was planning to list a couple of items soon and am now confused. So after a sale, Ebay deducts their fee's then they proceed to deposit the remainder in to your checking account?
If you are using eBay managed payments then that is correct.
Good video, but the more I work with eBay the less I like it as they have extortionate charges. I'm looking for a new platform.
then, if i haven't sold anything im not supposed to getting charged?
I’ve been charged $150 a month for the past two months. That’s ridiculous.
I got charged 500 first month 650 last month this month it will be around 1000-1500 I’m livid
Why am I being charged a $20 invoice for the month if I’m within my 200 free posts?
Do you have a store subscription?
SamsonTV I don’t
then contact eBay regarding this
SamsonTV Thanks for your response!
FYI the 30c fixed fee has nothing to do with paypal. Also chargebacks occur when someone disputes a transaction that appears on their credit card/bank account. Paypal does not have to be a party to a transaction for a chargeback to occur.
Thanks for the info, I assumed the 30c fee was to cover the fee eBay would have to pay Paypal when a buyer uses the service to pay? As far as the charge-backs I agree that is a good explanation, buyers essentially tell Paypal (via their bank) that the payment was illegitimate/not made by them/fraud etc. 👍🏼
@@SamsonTV No Buyers are no longer required to use paypal to pay for purchases. They can use credit cards, google pay, apple pay, after pay etc and they can instigate a chargeback through any of those channels. If they haven't used paypal to pay, then paypal has no involvement whatsoever.
That is true, but if they use Paypal then a 30c would be incurred, therefore eBay would need to charge that to sellers. Which is, I think, why they are adding the 30c fee.
does ebay get the seller fee before you are paid by the buyer of the item you sold?
10% off fees for Top Rated Plus sellers? So then they'd end up being 30¢ plus 3%? That's nothin'! Hard to believe?
I sold 2 items on eBay and it doesn’t look like I got a charged a final fee. Will I be charged later? I’m a new seller and this was my first item
Hi, where you paid directly via Paypal? If so then you are not on managed payments and will be charged fees at the end of the month.
I haven't sold in years and just started selling to get rid of personal items I don't need anymore and HOLY CRAP the fees are ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Special duration fee, final value fee, final fee on shipping. Oh wait it gets better, Paypal decides it want's to play too!!!! Paypal fee!!! Booyah!!!!!!!
Yeah eBay do raise their fees in one way or another every few years. They never used to charge fees on postage costs. Thanks for watching 👍
Wanna know how ebay gets $165 on an item you paid $1000 for? Ebay takes a 75% cut of profits AFTER they've padded your item's sell price. You will only make $50 while bay makes $165. Your return on investment is 5%. There's the magic rip off. How much of your $50 is really left from the time you spent creating the ad, taking pics, taking it to the post office adding insurance?
I just started selling this week and they automatically made it so all money goes through PayPal. Isn't this more expensive for me? I don't like PayPal and would prefer direct deposit
Are you on managed Payments?
How long do transactions take to process? Mine is going on 2 days now
Mines at 4 I tried to contact them but all I get is some fucking bull shit automated message about something completely different, eBay is killing me
Hi Samson. I sold nothing and got a 0.01 $ bill. Any idea why ?
Ripoff. That needs to split with the buyer. Seller takes all the risk. Plus packing materials and gas to the PO etc.
Thanks for the Vid!
Thanks for watching!
I want to go back to paypal but I cant find any option , in ebay doesnt exist customer service, they only put some questions with their answer that they want .
Can I know what does(account level fees and adjustment) charge for?
After I sold something, ebay emailed me saying i have received some credits. what does this mean?
Potentially fee credits?
QUESTION. AS A NEW SELLER WHEN I SIGN UP WILL I AUTOMATICALLY BE PUT ON MANAGED PAYMENTS? THANK YOU FOR ALL THE INFO.
Yes you will be, once managed payments are rolled out. Thanks for watching.
If you sell an item on eBay do you get charged only after the buyer buys the item and also do you get charged by ebay every month.
On managed payments, the fees are deducted instantly.
