How eBay fees work on cards

On most US trading-card sales eBay charges a final value fee (≈13.25% of the total including shipping) plus a fixed $0.40 per order. If you run Promoted Listings, that ad rate comes off the top too. The fee applies to the item price and the shipping you charge — so “free shipping” isn't free to you. Your real profit is what's left after fees, the card's cost, and your actual postage.

Selling more than a couple of cards? Foilio turns your whole collection into fee-aware listings automatically, and you can look up any card's value free.
