What type of ebay account do I need / help with fees

[delifine-0]

Can anyone advise what ebay account / shop I need and help with fees? I'm finding it all a bit confusing.

I am going to be selling a single product initially, possible ranging to 5-10 products. I will have 50+ of each product.

Im guessing a business account will be necessary, but do I need a shop?

My item will be priced at £6.99 + £2 delivery. What will be my fees for the different options?

Thank you for your help.

you don't need a shop, but you do need a business account,

use this link:-

Upgrade to a Business Account

a shop isn't financilly viable until you list about 100 items

as a registered business without a shop you will be charged 36p per listing,

final value fees will vary depending on the category you list in

Thanks for the quick response. It would be sweets / confectionary on a buy it now

[pixiesen2012]

that will be 11% plus 20%VAT on the fees

is there a fee for the buy it now?

Is there an additional payment for a buy it now listing?

[pixiesen2012]

if you add a buy it now to an auction style listing it costs an additional 50p


if you list as a fixed price buy it now you only pay the one 36p fee
