eBay Fee Calculator for Electronics
Electronics carry eBay's lowest final value fee at 6.5% — half the clothing rate — which makes eBay the default channel for phones, laptops, parts, and refurb resellers. The hidden cost is fixed per-order charges: the Feb 2025 $0.30 per-order fee and $0.30 managed payments fixed fee hit low-AOV electronics ($25–40) harder than high-ticket items. A $32 phone charger lot looks viable at 6.5% FVF until fixed fees consume 3%+ of revenue. Model your exact SKU weight and sale price before listing mixed electronics lots.
