eBay fees are based on the total paid by the buyer, including shipping and sales tax. Are you going to offer shipping, or will it be local pickup only?

You can estimate sales tax at about 6%. So assuming only local pickup, your fee would be approximately (1500 x 1.06 = 1590) X 13.25% = 210.68. + .40 transaction fee = $211.08 final value fee. $1500 - 211.08 = $1288.92 your net. (The amount will changed based on the actual tax paid by the buyer.)

This also assumes that you do not use any optional upgrades like a reserve price, bold title or subtitle. See the full list here -
