Fee to revise a listing (increase asking price)
Summary: revygurl asked if eBay charges a fee for revising a listing by increasing the asking price, referencing eBay's stated policy that fees apply only when adding a feature or raising the price. They later confirmed with eBay that no fees are applied for merely raising the asking price. fergua3 supported this information, clarifying that extra fees are charged only for adding features and these are shown before submission. reallynicestamps mentioned that while no revision fee is applied, increasing the price raises the Final Value Fees proportionately. ricarmic speculated that fees might be incurred if a reserve price is raised on an auction item, as reserve fees are tied to the reserve amount.
Does anyone know what is the fee when you revise your listing by increasing the asking price??
Ebay states here that "There's no fee to revise a listing, UNLESS you add a special feature or raise your asking price."
So I am wondering what is the fee for raising your asking price??
Thanks!

·3 years agoI'm not 100% sure but I think there is a scenario where if one has an auction item with a reserve on it that raising the reserve price could/would incur extra fees as there's a fee for putting a reserve on an auction item that I think is based on the reserve $$ amount. (but not the starting price of the auction)

·3 years agoEBay may have, confusingly, been covering themselves since raising the price will also raise the amount of Final Value Fees you will pay, although not the percentage.

·3 years agocorrect, there are no fees for raising price, or increasing quantity of items for sale. Only when you add a feature is there a fee during revising and that fee is the same as what it would have been had you used that feature when you created the listing.
Any additional fees charged will be clearly shown at the bottom of the listing you are revising right above where you click on 'submit revisions'. So you will know before committing to the revisision, of any fee charges.
