Here's an Amazon Marketplace Fee Calculator I wrote to help people calculate what their fees and profit would be when using Amazon Marketplace. If you've ever bought anything from Amazon.com before you're probably familar with Amazon Marketplace. Amazon Marketplace allows sellers to offer their new and used goods directly alongside Amazon's own offerings. You can easily recognize it by seeing something like this on a product's details page...

In a way, this is similar to eBay's Half.com. Both systems allow you to list your item for an extended period of time without paying any fees until your item sells.

Here's my newest online tool, an eBay Motors Fee Calculator. If you've ever wondered how much it would cost to sell a vehicle or vehicle parts and accessories on eBay Motors, then this tool is for you. This calculator supports all of the different vehicle and listing types available on eBay Motors and includes a special option just for Parts & Accessories. You simply enter the price of your item and the calculator figures out what your fees would be and what you would receive after fees if you were to sell an item on eBay Motors for that amount. It includes options for all of the different eBay Motors listing upgrades, has a built-in series of editable fee rate tables, and can optionally include your PayPal fees as well. It also comes with a reverse fee calculator that can tell you what price to charge for your item or what amount to charge for shipping & handling to receive the amount you want after fees.

Since a lot of people have been requesting it lately, here's my new eBay Stores Fee Calculator. If you look at the fees page for eBay Stores, you'll notice their fee structure is very different from eBay.com. This is because having an eBay Store requires you to pay a monthly subscription fee and Store listings have an increased duration of 30 days. Store listings also have slightly different visibility on eBay.com, which you can read more about on their FAQ page. Since the fees for eBay Stores are so much different I thought it would be better to make a entirely new calculator just for them rather than adding them as an option into my existing eBay fee calculator.

Today I've just finished with the redesign of my eBay Fee Calculator. This is a free online tool I've made to allow people to easily calculate what their total eBay and PayPal fees would be to sell an item on eBay. You can also use it to reverse calculate your eBay fees to determine what amount you would need to sell your item for to receive the amount you want after fees. To learn more about selling on eBay, you can read eBay's help page How do I sell on eBay? or visit their official fees page for more info.
