Final value fee percentages and the category thresholds are taken from eBay's own seller fee pages and cross-checked against an independent fee reference dated 2026-09-25; only values the two agree on are used as defaults here. Checked 2026-10-15.
Three figures rest on a single source and are flagged as such: the per-order fixed fee of $0.40 ($0.30 on orders of $10 or less), the 1.65% international fee, and the 6% below-standard surcharge. They are editable or clearly labelled so you can substitute eBay's current figure.

There is no universal figure, it depends on category, how much you paid for stock and your return rate. What this calculator does is show the real number after fees, which is usually far lower than the gap between purchase and sale price suggests.
Because the final value fee is charged on the sale total including buyer-paid shipping, and the per-order fee is taken on top. A sale that looks like a $30 gain can be several dollars lighter once both are applied.
No. Promoted Listings ad rates are set by you and vary by campaign, so they are not included here. Subtract your ad rate from the profit shown to get the true figure for an advertised sale.
