Auction fee calculators...

A few years ago I was searching for an auction fee calculator. I found a few, but unfortunately most either didn’t work, were too simple, or hadn’t been updated for years. Checking some of the more popular auction forums like Vendio, OTWA and AuctionBytes I learned that most users of those auction fee calculators were not happy since many had to be purchased, but they still didn't work all that well. So I got together with some friends and we decided to set about developing our own free auction fee calculators. All are designed to operate with modern* web browsers installed on Windows, Mac OS, WebTV, Linux, and Unix computers; all are absolutely free to use.

International auction fee calculators

Within days of the initial release, we received a large number of requests from international auction sellers asking us to create auction fee calculators for their domestic auction sites. So we built auction fee calculators for the various international English-speaking markets including: eBay Canada, Overstock, eBay United Kingdom, eBay Ireland, eBay Australia, eBay India, eBay Philippines, eBay New Zealand and Trademe New Zealand. We quickly followed up with localized versions for major European markets including: eBay Germany, eBay France, eBay Spain, eBay Belgium, eBay Netherlands, eBay Austria, eBay Switzerland, and eBay Italy. Auction fee calculators for popular European auctions sites including: Ricardo, QXL and Aucland, as well as newer foreign eBay sites such as: eBay Sweden and eBay Poland are now available.

Compare auction fees worldwide

We’ve included several useful fees charts comparing auction listing and sales fees between the different international eBay sites in both dollars and euros. International auction sellers can find the cheapest countries to list their items since auction listing and sales fees vary quite markedly between the different international auction websites. Store fees are also listed and these vary considerably too. A little research can save you a huge amount in eBay fees.

International PayPal fee compared

PayPal acceptance fees are also compared in the various international currencies available to PayPal customers. Also we look at the pro and cons of PayPal compared to merchant accounts and bank transfers.

eBay Phone Numbers

Most of our Auction Fee Calculators include both customer support and emergency eBay Phone Numbers and PayPal Phone Numbers. As these are often difficult to find on their company sites, we have done the hard work for you.

Breakeven Auction Profit Calculator

Most of our auction fee calculators can determine optional PayPal fees, and each auction fee calculator features a useful Breakeven Auction Profit Calculator that calculates how much you’ll net after auction commissions are deducted.
