eBay fees

<< < (3/4) > >>

Nurse Julie:
Just had confirmation from Ebay, it's free for all Private Sellers. By rights, I should register as a business seller at Ebay, as it's the Private Sellers that HMRC are trying to get tax revenue from. But as I declare my earnings from Ebay to HMRC anyway, I'll stay as I am until someone tells me otherwise.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I had the notification for about free transaction for privates sellers today.
TBH I had pretty much given up on selling  anything on ebay due to the relatively large cut they used to take between them & PayPal.
In the early days e bay was all about small private sellers iirc with the shift having gone to nearly all businesses, be good to see it swing back the other way a tad.

Nurse Julie:
Personally, I think it's great that private sellers won't incur any fees. It gives people the opportunity to clear out all those bits and bobs that were bought years ago and are never used and get a bit of money back, that's what Ebay was created for.
From my own personal point of view, I'll upgrade to a business seller sometime, I've been used to paying fees on the new parts I sell, so may as well carry on.
I'm thinking I may open another ebay account as a private seller to sell off some of the personal bits and bobs I don't use any more.

SumpMagnet:
So, where are E-Bay going to make back the revenue they are losing from the fees?
