What's a Final Value Fee?
When your item sells or ends with a winning bid, your seller account is charged a Final Value Fee based on the item's final sale price and category.
How do I know what the Final Value Fee will be?
To see how Final Value Fees are calculated for these listing formats, see eBay.com fees.au:
Auction-style :The Final Value Fee is based on the winning bid.
Fixed Price or Buy It Now: The Final Value Fee is based on the purchase price
Reserve Price auction-style listings: The Final Value fee is based on the closing bid when the reserve price is met. There's no Final Value Fee charged if the reserve isn't met.
Fee calculation for special categories
Motors Vehicles:
eBay charges a fix price Final Value Fee for Cars, Motorcycles, Boats and Other Vehicles. See eBay fese pags for more information.
Real Estate: There are no Final Value Fees on Real Estate listings.
You will not be charged a Final Value Fee if:
There were no bids on your item (or your "Buy It Now" item is not bought.)
There were no bids that met your reserve price in the case of a Reserve Price Auction (applies only to cars, motorcycles, boats and other vehicles)
Your item or service is listed using a Classified Ad Listing.
How can I get a credit or refund for my Final Value Fee?
This fee applies whether or not you complete the sale with the buyer.
If a buyer backs out and doesn't buy the item, you can open a case in our Resolution centre to work it out with the buyer. If the case isn't resolved or you mutually agree not to go through with the transaction, you can request a Final Value Fee credit to your eBay account when you close the case. This credit will be applied to your future listings. If you'd rather get a refund, see Requesting a refund from eBay (for sellers).
Also, if you cancel the transaction in our Resolution Centre and the buyer agrees, you can receive a Final Value Fee credit or refund.
Must use Buy It Now and PayPal.
