Is the transaction fee the same as the final value fee?
No final value fees!?! That is a big change? I usually wait until the 80% off days but this is pretty good news if true.
Thanks!!

What I can make out u can list 300 items a month then u have to pay a fee
I might be wrong so don’t hold me to it

Sounds too good to be true! I’ve got a couple of bigger items I want to sell so will look at this for sure.
The cynic in me wonders why they’d do this?
Could be a really good thing for used gear prices if it stacks up!

crazy!
why the change? they’ll be losing a ton of money!
wonder if facebook marketplace and gumtree with their free ads have had an effect on private sales?

Just my luck,
Just sold an AR MK2 for £990 on Reverb and received £900
Gonna get my other listings taken down today and transferred to ebay!

I’m guessing this. FB marketplace will have taken a hell of a lot of traffic from them. If people know it’s free to list, maybe some will come back and it will drive overall traffic back onto the site?

Reverb is going to get hit hard by this

Certainly it will work for me. I used to favour Reverb but we are still talking 8% fees with Reverb compared to 13% with eBay before.
Even if they dropped to 5% I’d have gone with them. Not complaining though, delisting everything there now.
A little gutted I just sold £2k of stuff on eBay 2 months ago!

Same but I only sold when it was like 80% or 70% fees wouldn’t sell when it was full fees

so they’re just going to make money on business sales?
Or am I missing somwhere else they make money?
I wish they were clear about whether this applies to currently running auctions! I have loads of auctions on now I don’t know whether to end and restart…
Yeah had same email myself, time to list!
I ended all mine and relisted
I’m guessing u will pay on things listed already
