ebay motors fees?

I can easily find listing fees for ebay motors. For low-volume sellers (under six a year), it seems pretty inexpensive to list.

But nowhere can I find the fees when the item actually sells.

For non-motors items (e.g. electronics) there's a "final value" fee, which is a percentage of the sale price. This is in addition to the "listing fees".

Does anyone know how the "final value" fee is calculated on ebay motors cars?

When I search Ebay Motors for selling fees, all I get is the listing fees. Can't seem to find any info on "final value" fees for Ebay Motors.

Reason I'm asking: I see so many cars that sell (apparently), then go right back on the market within a month, often by the original seller. The sale may have fallen through (or was a sham) - but how are the seller's "percentage of final sale" fees calculated?

Can anyone point me to the Ebay Motors page showing final sales fees?

Thanks.
Tom
 
You won't find it there but I have read it's 1% elsewhere on the web. No telling with those clowns. Aughta start calling it feebay. PM sent.
 
The basic listing is $0. You pay extra for any "optional features". Then you pay the "sucessful listing" fee. Nothing else. This fee structure is for vehicles only.
