Please could someone tell me how this works, fee-wise? Will I be charged the same fee regardless of how many items I list for sale?

And if I list 10 items for sale on B I N, and I only get 2 buyers, am I charged the same listing fee as if I had managed to sell all 10? Or do the charges vary according to how many actually sold?

Thanks for any replies and a Merry Christmas to all in AB land. x

Thank you MR, but I'd already read the Help pages and couldn't find an answer to my question.

Thanks Mark. I was hoping that an ABer might use the facility and be able to give me an answer, rather than contact eBay directly.
Tut tut unbelievable!
Do you have some sort of aversion to asking eBay directly? Surely there can be no better source of the answer to your specific question - that's why their support system is there, after all... :-) Horse's mouth...
Just search through or ask here .. The eBay Community Forum ...

That'll be my next course of action, Mark, if I can't get a suitable answer from this wonderfully helpful Q & A site.

Yes, I have tried to get in touch with eBay before. I blame them for around 50% of my grey hair. :o)

Sorry AlBags, didn't see your reply there.

Good idea. I will try that if I get no reply from ABers. Thanks.
Here's a better list ... Check nos. 6 & 7 (your answer is in no.7)

Fantastic. Thanks very much for that, AlBags, very kind of you.
Thought it would be there somewhere!
Al.
Bless you Al. :-)

Windy, if you list 10 things as Buy It Now (BIN) you will be charged for each of them for a listing fee, then you will be charged the selling percentage on any you sell. I have sold multiples (ten items the same) but on the auction option, and have listed each of them individually - how many I sold doesn't come into the equation. You pay an extra fee for BiN than you would if you listed in auction style. I hope this helps.

Thanks very much boxtops. I'll take a closer look at the options.
