The fees are listed in the HELP pages:

So, yes, with a Seller+ account you can run an auction without a gallery picture and without any optional extras. Then, when the item sells, you will not be charged a FVF.

so If i decided to use a gallery picture and no extra options, would I be charged a FVF??

As a seller+, if you put in a listing with FIVE pictures, no extras (2nd category, bold, second title line), AND a gallery photo, you pay no listing fee, and only 2% of the final fee.
Which means 0 + 2% of final sale = total of what you pay

If you run the same item, BUT decide it is special and you need more exposure, you can list it as a "Featured" item and you pay nothing at the end but the featured item price, $1.

Which means 0 + $1 = no further fees when item is sold

Relisting costs nothing, except any extras you chose (bold, featured item etc) too. Talk about a bargain!!


I usually find that adding a second category (5 cents) is worth it because it gets my item more exposure.

If you need tips on selling, writing your listings, etc, read the forums! Everyone is willing to help everyone else here.

Welcome to ebid and good luck selling your goodies.

wow... no charge for relisting the same item for not being sold or relisting the same item for having another one in stock?

Still a bargain at 2% =)
