Hello,
I have a question. I was selling car on eBay, I listed once, someone purchased it, never paid, so I have re-listed and sold it again, another buyer not paid again.
EBay now is asking me to pay listing fees for those both unpaid transactions.
Do I have to pay them?
Thank you.

Yes, that is correct, listing fees are non refundable.
You can compare this to listing your car in your local paper, if the car did not sell, the paper would not refund you, your advertising fees.

Listing fees are non-refundable.
The cheapest and best format to sell a vehicle on is an eBay Classified Ad. This also cuts out the time wasters and non-payers.
A Classified Ad costs £19.99 and there are no final value fees if you sell your item.
Your listing runs for 30 days, during which you can arrange for potential buyers to view your item, you can then end it once paid. You can accept offers too (you don't accept the offer until the buyer has been to view first).

If you decide instead to list in auction format or fixed price Buy It Now it will cost £14.99 for your listing, and that fee is payable even if your item doesn't sell or you end up with a non-payer, and if you sell your item, there are final value fees of 1% of the final transaction (min. £25, max. £45)

Vehicle listing fees are not refunded and a FVF fee of 1% of the final transaction (min. £25, max. £45). is due unless the Unpaid transactions are cancelled correctly within 30 days >
