Three of the sheet's 9 rows: *Platform fees only, US seller, no shipping charged, no sales tax. The sheet also lists Depop, TikTok Shop, Etsy, Whatnot, eBay media and Amazon media. Computed with the same code as the [fee calculators](https://resellerindex.com/calculators/).* | Platform | Fees on $10 | Fees on $25 | Fees on $50 | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | | [eBay (most categories)](https://resellerindex.com/calculators/ebay-fee-calculator/) | $1.66 (16.6%) | $3.80 (15.2%) | $7.20 (14.4%) | | [Poshmark](https://resellerindex.com/calculators/poshmark-fee-calculator/) | $2.95 (29.5%) | $5.00 (20%) | $10.00 (20%) | | [Mercari](https://resellerindex.com/calculators/mercari-fee-calculator/) | $1.00 (10%) | $2.50 (10%) | $5.00 (10%) | ### 2.

Whether it goes up in January: [USPS 2027 price change](https://resellerindex.com/rates/usps-price-change-2027/). ### 5. Recent and upcoming changes The 5 latest-dated entries in our [change tracker](https://resellerindex.com/changes/), with the date each takes effect. The first two: - [Car loan interest deduction: final rules take effect Nov 9, 2026](https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2026-11-09-irs-car-loan-interest-final-regulations/) (effective Nov 9, 2026) - [Whatnot will bill sellers for USPS weight adjustments from Nov 4](https://resellerindex.com/changes/whatnot/2026-11-04-whatnot-carrier-weight-adjustments/) (effective Nov 4, 2026) ## How the numbers are worked out The fee table uses the same assumptions as the Reseller Cost Index on our [home page](https://resellerindex.com/): platform fees only, a US seller, the item price alone, no shipping charged and no sales tax. eBay includes its per-order fee, Etsy its $0.20 listing fee, Depop, Whatnot and Etsy their payment processing, and Amazon its $1.80 media closing fee. Whatnot is the standard tier and TikTok Shop is most categories. Real fees run higher when the buyer pays you for shipping (every platform here but Poshmark takes a share of it) or pays sales tax (eBay's percentage and the payment processing on Depop, Whatnot and Etsy include it): the [where-to-sell calculator](https://resellerindex.com/calculators/where-to-sell/) and [eBay fees on sales tax](https://resellerindex.com/guides/ebay-fees-on-sales-tax/) show how much. Postage comes from USPS Notice 123, the official price list on USPS's Postal Explorer site. Fees come from each platform's own US fee page; for eBay and Amazon, from our saved copies of those pages dated Oct 14, 2026. Fees were last verified on Oct 14, 2026 and USPS prices on Oct 19, 2026. ## Questions ### Is it really free? Yes. Enter your email and the link to the sheet appears on the next page.
