I have a question about selling, I have bought thousands of times but have not sold yet.
I have a pay pal account and it is Personal not Premier. Can i take payments on my items or do I have to upgrade to the Premier?
Personal accounts can accept payments from paypal or bank account balance only (in this case the paypal account is linked to a user's bank account); sometimes debit cards are allowed, but most cases you will need to upgrade to Premier account to accept them. You will need to upgrade to a Premier account, and pay a transaction fee, to accept credit cards.
Also what are all the fees that are going to be invovled if the pins go for around $5 each?
Sellers at a minimum pay "insertion fees" and "final values fees" (which does not include any selling extras). Fees are as follows:
Starting Price,
Opening Value or
Reserve Price Insertion Fee
$0.01 - $0.99 $0.30
$1.00 - $9.99 $0.35
--> $10.00 - $24.99 $0.60
$25.00 - $49.99 $1.20
$50.00 - $199.99 $2.40
$200.00 - $499.99 $3.60
$500.00 and up $4.80
The Final Value Fee is calculated per item sold, based on the final sale price of the item.
Closing Value Final Value Fee
-->$0 - $25 5.25% of the closing value
$25 - $1,000 5.25% of the initial $25 ($1.31),
plus 2.75% of the remaining closing value balance ($25.01 to $1,000)
Over $1,000 5.25% of the initial $25 ($1.31),
plus 2.75% of the initial $25 - $1000 ($26.81),
plus 1.50% of the remaining closing value balance ($1000.01 - closing value)
As an option, you may want to list more than one pin in an auction. Hope this helps.
