Whats up guys, trying to read through the fine print on ebay.

I just read on their motorsports page that you get 4 free listings per 12 months. I thought it might not hurt to toss my argo on there if it isn't going to cost me anything. But then...if it sells ebay is taking $100.00, and a reserve price is $7.00 yada yada yada.

Anyways, anyone who frequents ebay a lot, help me figure out what this would cost.

A basic ad, $1.00 starting bid, $7200 Reserve, & 5-8 pictures if it does not sell.

And then a basic ad, $1.00 starting bid, $7200 Reserve, & 5-8 pictures if it does sell.

Thanks.

ebay has really got out of hand with the feas. i just sold a r/c airplane back before christmas and after it sold i ended up getting charged for how much it sold for along with listing fee. i said never again. i use to sell stuff on ebay like crazy looks like they have gottin money hungary. if people quite sellin like i did ebay is going to take a dump. it really pissed me off though that they started doing this

for the most part, I dont sell anything on ebay worth over 300 or so. Listing fees, and selling fees. Its gay.

I sold my Harley on ebay a year ago for around $40.Also remember the Paypal fees.Thats why everyone selling big items like cars/bikes require a down payment of $300-$500 through paypal and the rest with cashiers check or personal check to avoid further fees because paypal charges a % rate.All together it was around $95.
