Insertion Fee

The eBay insertion fee is essentially the price you pay to list a product. You get up to 250 listings free of insertion fees every month. Once you use up those zero-insertion-fee listings, any additional listings will cost you $0.35 each.

However, once you’ve listed the first 250 products for free, the insertion fees:

• Become non-refundable if the item doesn’t sell.
• Apply per listing and per category.
• Apply to both original listings and any relisting.
• Apply per listing for identical items in duplicate auction-style listings.
• Are charged only once for multiple items listed within the same single listing.
