Based on standard US eBay final value fees for sellers without a store (13.6% + a $0.30 per-order fee on orders under $10, or $0.40 over $10). Rates vary by category and store subscription. Last updated 2026-05.
How eBay fees work
When you sell on eBay, your main cost is the final value fee — a percentage of the total the buyer pays (item price plus shipping), plus a flat $0.30 per order. For most categories this is 13.6%, and it already includes payment processing, so there is no separate PayPal fee.
This calculator subtracts those fees and your own item and shipping costs, so you see your real net profit instead of just the sale price.

| $100.00 | - $14.00 | $86.00 |
