Ebay seller fees

WingZero30 · 27 Oct 2010 at 22:31

Hi guys

I just sold an item today on ebay and there is the seller fee of £3.57. Now it says in my account that amount due on 27th october is £0.00. Does this mean ebay has automatically deducted the seller fees from my bank account via paypal?
Also it says on ebay help page that seller fees invoice is sent every month :confused:

. Does it mean that once you have sold an item on ebay you will have to keep paying seller fees every month to keep your account open or is the seller fee dependant solely on the item you sell? :confused:

. Please clarify this issue for me.

Many thanks

I apologise as I don't know if the issues related to ebay are allowed on this forums or not as I couldn't think of a better site to post this issue for clarification.

No you only accrue seller fees should you well, sell something. When you do, at the end of each month you get invoiced for it and you pay.

So once I have payed the required amount after being invoiced, then I won't receive any further invoices?
Also How will I pay the seller fees? I don't see any button etc which says I can pay by paypal.

As said above, they raise an invoice each month. You can pay it off ahead of time. I always do, even if it's only a few pence.

To pay by Paypal go to...

My Ebay
Then click the account menu and select "Seller account"
Under the "Account summary" box is a box called "Payment methods for sellers fees"
In there, you should find some text saying "You can make a one time payment using Paypal or another payment method"
Click the link in "one time payment"
Boom.

So if I do one time payment then I don't have to pay any further. What if I want to cancel seller account?

if you cancel the account and you have fees to pay, they proceed with further action, maybe till court :eek:

Yeah, that's fine.

Not sure you can really cancel a seller account... you just stop selling things!
