Ebay fees for selling a business

[traceyj7719]

Hi - can anyone help me regarding understanding the fees associated with selling a business via Ebay. Do you have to be a private or business seller? We are currently listed as a private seller. If we have to register as a business seller are there any costs associated with that?  If we want to list it internationally, what fees are then involved? Thanks Tracey

Here's eBay's guidance page featuring fees for business accounts:

The type of account you need to trade on depends om what you're listing - a private seller is one who is just selling off their own personal items such as clothes from their wardrobe, bits from their loft/garage etc.

A Business seller is someone who buys or makes items to sell on.  They need to be registered as a business to meet the requirements of UK law

Do you mean what you say "selling a business"? or do you just mean Business Selling.?

Hi John - yes - selling a business

I don't think you can sell a business on ebay.
