UK sellers can pay just 2% when you sell Health & Beauty items up to £10 until the end of September in a new eBay Final Value fees Promotion, but you must actively opt in to receive the 2% fees. There is also an eBay Price reduction on Final value fees and fee caps in Home, Furniture & DIY and Jewellery & Watches categories for business sellers which you can read more about here.
If you sell in Health and Beauty, as you read through this promotion consider a couple of points:
- Could you lower the cost of certain products to below £10?
- If you offer free postage, would your products be priced below £10 if you charged postage separately?
- If you sell sets of items, would it make more sense to also offer them singly to take the price below £10?
