Da viele Verkäufer evtl. zwischen Gebührenrabatten und Nicht-Gebührenrabatten rumschwimmen, lohnt es sich also immer, mit den "Normalgebühren" zu kalkulieren.

Great Service makes the difference in 2008
A message from Mark Lewis, eBay
eBay is delighted to announce a series of substantial new benefits for sellers on eBay.co.uk, including a reduction in Insertion Fees of up to 33% and volume discounts of up to 40% on revised Final Value Fees.
Who benefits? Seller service makes the difference
Ask successful sellers on eBay what drives their success and many will say it comes down to good old-fashioned service – giving buyers what they want, at a great price, and the confidence that any problems they encounter will be sorted.
It’s this service that keeps buyers coming back again and again - over 15 million in November 2007 alone.
Starting today, we’re introducing a series of changes, based on feedback from sellers and buyers, that will provide clear incentives and rewards for sellers to continue offering good service, and give buyers even greater confidence to come back more.
At the same time we’ll be making sure that the minority of sellers who continue to undermine your good reputation by offering poor service find it much harder to compete.
What does this mean for me? Reductions and Rewards
Provide good service and you’ll get better visibility in search results and the opportunity to enjoy volume discounts of up to 40% on our new Final Value Fees.
Service will be measured by Detailed Seller Ratings left anonymously by your buyers over your previous thirty days’ trading. These changes go live in February, so please act now to keep your service levels high and qualify for the benefits.
Alongside this, many sellers tell us that the upfront risk of listing an item is too great. In response, eBay is pleased to outline below a reduction of up to 33% on your insertion fees that will significantly reduce this risk and rebalance fees to better reflect successful sales.
That’s just the start
Please take the time to read through all the details on this page. There will be a series of Q&A sessions on the Community boards over the coming weeks and as always we look forward to your feedback. Of course, we’ll continue to update you as these changes take effect.
Finally, thank you for your support throughout 2007. By championing and rewarding good service and reducing some of your risks, we hope to make a positive difference to sellers’ businesses and buyers’ experiences, and we wish you continued success for the year ahead.
