BuMMeRBaits Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 Yes, you have to pay the fee for every item you put onto e-bay wether it sells or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojo Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 I haven't sold on ebay for quite a while, but you used to be able to relist the item for free one time if it didn't sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavu Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Ebay always charges a "listing fee" for every item placed for auction. The amount charged depends on how much you start the auction off for. This amount is not refundable. Mojo might be right about the "second time free" thing. I have never checked in on that. Usually I start my stuff off at a dollar or less and don't worry about the second time. They will hit you again when you sell the item, and if you use PayPal, you will get nailed again. Make sure you figure all this in the equation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombadier Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Ebay has in the past let you relist the item once and if it sold only pay 1 listing fee, if it didn't sell you'd have to pay twice.. This was for individuals with out an ebay store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverMan Posted April 4, 2005 Report Share Posted April 4, 2005 The fees have jumped in recent months considerably too. Last year was red hot for baits on Ebay for me but this year things have really slowed up. Ebay is a great way to advertise tho. jed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
