eBay UK Motors fees increased

No primary category set

From 30th March 2010, there are some changes to fees for selling on eBay UK Motors:

Fee Old New
Add BIN to auction listing £0.99 £2.99
Reserve fee £4.00 £7.99
Classified ad £12.99 £14.99
Picture pack £1.25 Free

All other fees

The seems to have been hidden away rather. Some Motors’ sellers say they’ve had an email about it, but there has been no AB post or similar official announcement, and in a thread on the PowerSeller board, James the eBay UK Community Manager said he had . eBay might want to look again at their communication on this one.

I also question the wisdom of increasing the fee for reserves: NOTHING makes for shill bidding like reserve fees. Free pictures won’t make up for the bumps on the other fees either: I predict a few more eBay sellers will be trying out Autotrader, Gumtree and the like in coming weeks.

  1. I have had people ask me whethers its possible to sell motor parts on classified ads, we might see a migration soon.
