Can someone help me? Why do I owe a one dollar fee if I've never sold anything?
Hello , can someone help me?
I was going to start selling some things because I shop too much and need to get rid of new stuff.
So, I started off with one book at first. It didn't sell and that's okay. I look and I have an email saying I owe Ebay a dollar. I thought if I sold something of course I would pay them, but I sold nothing. I didn't sign up for a subscription or a fancy store of my own, yet. I just wanted to see how Ebay operated first. There was never any mention of any fees out right that I would owe if I had sold nothing.
Has anyone delt with a similar situation. I know it's just a dollar, but it leaves a bad taste. Also, when I try to reach out to Ebay somehow and the website puts you in a circle. I was planning on buying and selling and being apart of Ebay, but I can just go to a more transparent site.

·2 years agoLISTING FEES are shown to you right above the the list item icon that you must click to get your item listed.
Pretty transparent to me.

OP2 years agoSorry for calling you a jerk. I really didn't see this fee. I do see now that there is an auction fee, but it was in the finance selling section not on the front page. Ebay is difficult to read for me, not because I'm stupid. I read back your comment it's actually funny. I just don't see why people choose to put other people down.

·2 years agoThe first time you listed it as a 3 day option which has a $1 fee. The other two listings were for 7 days so there was no fee.
