No, there are various fees and options to sell items on Ebay.

In fact, selling on eBay can end up being an extremely costly transaction. EBay is constantly revising their fee structure, but here are some of the fees you're looking to pay.

1). listing fee (between 10 cents to $4 dollars, regardless if your item sells). This is for a basic listing. If you want to add listing "addons" these will cost you more.

2). selling commission (if you sell you're item, has a fee scale) roughly 8.75% of your first $25, then 3.50% of any amount up to $1000 and so on.

3). paypal fees (if you use paypal to collect payment) - about 3% of amount collected

4). shipping fees (you'll probably be able to charge the user for this fee, but make sure you ask for enough, because otherwise you'll end up covering any shortage)

So if your auction goes for $550.00, you're going to pay the following

$4.00 listing fee

$20.55 commission to eBay

$15.95 paypal fee (paypal is owned by eBay)

Total fee of $40.50

Another alternative is to use free classified sites such as Craigslist if you want to avoid fee's. However, then you have to be careful about spammers and scammers. You can always try social classifieds such as friendsell.com where more trust, control and privacy exist too.

Far from it...

it cost's to list unless you are listing on a free listing day...

it costs for certain addons such as subtitles and the final amount you receive has a final value fee deducted from it.

There are fees involved, always.

Listing the auction does not necessarily cost anything. If you use the barest minimum of options, you can list the auction for free.

However, when the auction is won, you will owe eBay a percentage of the final sale value.
