研究过亚马逊,再研究一下ebay上卖东西的情况。
ebay可以开店等等,我这里只是想卖几本课本,所以,只是列最简单的收费情况。
从ebay的Fees网页摘抄一段:
There are three types of fees charged when selling on eBay(收费类型分三种):
1, Insertion Fee - A non-refundable fee will be charged to your account when you list your item. This ranges between C$0.23 (US$0.20) and C$5.60 (US$4.80). From time to time, eBay offers pricing promotions that allow you to save on insertion fees.
插入费
2, Additional Option Fee - only charged if you choose optional seller features such as Gallery, Featured Item, Highlight, etc. 附加的可选费用 3, Final Value Fee - based upon the final sale price of your item and only applicable if your item sells. It is generally a small percentage of the final selling price of the item.
最后的交易费
具体费用: Fees for selling on eBay
如果是拍卖(auction-style format listings):
如果要价60刀,插入费(Insertion fee)1刀,最后交易费(Final sale price)是9%,就是5.4刀。
如果是一口价(fixed price format listings):
插入费(Insertion fee)固定为0.5刀,最后交易费(Final sale price)是9%,就是5.4刀。
如果要价60刀,最后交易费(Final sale price)这么定义的:
15.0% of the initial $50.00, plus 5.00% of the remaining final sale price balance ($50.01 to $1,000.00)。
大意是,开始50刀按15%收费,剩下按5%。
如果属于这一类Business & Industrial equipment fees,
Insertion fees |
$20.00 |
Reserve fees |
$5.00 |
Final value fees |
1.00% of the final sale price (maximum charge $250.00) |
BTW,如果用paypal交易,paypal也收费。
感觉Amazon.ca买书的话,费用要便宜些。可是网上有人说,Amazon收费比ebay贵,怎么我比较的结果是便宜呢,可能拍卖的费用比Amazon便宜。
上面网页内容简单的说,就是自己给拍卖的东西定的一个最低价格,别人看不到,别人给的价格高于这个价格时拍卖才能成功。
上面网页内容简单的说,你如果不卖了,也要收insertion fee的,所以,建议你先看看能不能修改,最后再考虑撤。
Fees for selling on eBay http://pages.ebay.ca/help/sell/fees.html
* Your first 100 single-quantity auction-style listings in a month won't be charged an insertion fee if: Your start price is between $0.01 and $0.99 (in C$ or US$ depending on the listing currency chosen). There is no reserve price. When your starting price is between $0.01 and $0.99, after your 100th listing in a month, you'll be charged a $0.10 insertion fee per listing (in C$ or US$ depending on the listing currency chosen). 大意是说,起价在 $0.01 到 $0.99 (美元或加元,根据你给的货币类型定)之间,最多列100个,一个月内免费 -- 注:感觉原来理解错了,是1个月内列的开始100个起价$0.01-$0.99的商品是免插入费的。超过了,每个收插入费(insertion fee)$0.10。 这些倒说的过去,就是邮费太贵了,难怪作物流的这么热门呢。

这是关于加邮费的网页,卖家提供,买家出钱。ebay还说,有的用邮费来逃避ebay的佣金,这会被ebay惩罚。
放弃了,本来想把剪纸挂上,ebay说起价$0.01到$0.99的免费,可是进行到第二步,就说$0.4的费用了,不知道哪里发生的。
2011年1月11日:刚把一个剪纸挂在ebay上了,是免费的。
