# The Reseller Index: full data > Every fee table, the Reseller Cost Index, the USPS Media Mail and Ground Advantage prices, the change tracker and the price histories published on https://resellerindex.com, in one markdown file. Built from the site's data files on every build, so it matches the pages. The short index is https://resellerindex.com/llms.txt. What The Reseller Index originates: the change tracker (dates, summaries and, where a change has one, the per-sale dollar effect), the compiled price-history datasets, the Reseller Cost Index and the computed comparisons. What it does not originate: the fees, prices and rules themselves. Each fee links to the platform's or USPS's own page, which is the authority; tax rules link to IRS.gov. If a number here differs from the official page, the official page is right. Data freshness: platform fees as last read 2026-10-14 to 2026-10-19 (each platform's date is on its own block below; Depop, Whatnot and Etsy wait for a check by hand because their help pages block automated readers); USPS prices verified 2026-10-19 against USPS Notice 123, effective October 4, 2026 (Time-Limited OCT 2026 Price Change, final); tracker entries verified 2026-10-14 to 2026-10-23; price histories verified 2026-10-19 (Forever stamp), 2026-10-19 (Media Mail), 2026-10-19 (Priority Mail and retail package) and 2026-10-19 (Priority Mail Flat Rate); next USPS price change: Stamps, Media Mail and other mailing services: not filed as of 2026-10-19; Ground Advantage, Priority Mail, Priority Mail Express and Parcel Select: not filed as of 2026-10-19.

It does not cover the rest of the site's text and design or the Profit Toolkit (see https://resellerindex.com/terms/), or the platforms' names, logos and pages; the fees, prices and rules themselves are set by each platform, USPS and the IRS. How to cite: `The Reseller Index. "." resellerindex.com. Verified . `, or as a one-line credit, `Source: The Reseller Index (resellerindex.com), , verified `. Each tracker entry has a permanent URL, `https://resellerindex.com/changes///`. Keep the verified date with any number (and the effective date with a change), since both change often. For a fee, price or rule that a platform, USPS or the IRS sets, name that official source too. Full formats and examples: https://resellerindex.com/cite/ How it is made: Researched and drafted with AI assistance from each platform's and carrier's own published pages.

Each seller gets the lower rate on up to $400K of auction sales a week. - Affiliate commission (only on orders that come through an affiliate creator, at that collaboration's commission rate): TikTok figures it on the product price without tax, less any seller discount, so shipping isn't in it. - Smart Promotion (optional, and you can opt out at any time): TikTok charges 3.5% of your whole shop's GMV outside campaigns (1 to 2 points more during campaigns) and funds buyer discounts in return; enrolling is required for platform campaigns. - Shipping labels are a separate seller cost. ## Reseller Cost Index Page: https://resellerindex.com/ Page: https://resellerindex.com/tools/embed-the-cost-index/ Source: https://depophelp.zendesk.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360001791127-Seller-fees-and-charges (Depop: Seller fees and charges) Source: https://seller-us.tiktok.com/university/essay?knowledge_id=5988482086864682&lang=en (TikTok Shop Academy: TikTok Shop Referral Fees in 2024 by Category (dated 10/08/2026)) Source: https://www.mercari.com/us/help_center/article/169/ (Mercari: Fees on Mercari) Source: https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/115014483627-What-are-the-Fees-and-Taxes-for-Selling-on-Etsy (Etsy: What are the fees and taxes for selling on Etsy?)

Dollar effects: the change in the seller's net on a $10, $25 and $50 sale, under the basis given with the entry; negative means the seller keeps less. An entry without one has no per-sale fee effect. ### Car loan interest deduction: final rules take effect Nov 9, 2026 Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2026-11-09-irs-car-loan-interest-final-regulations/ Source: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-irbs/irb26-39.pdf (IRS, Internal Revenue Bulletin 2026-39 (T.D. 10054)) Verified: 2026-10-23 Platform: IRS. Category: Tax. Announced: 2026-09-21. Effective: 2026-11-09. Final regulations on the new deduction for car loan interest (T.D. 10054, Internal Revenue Bulletin 2026-39, Sept. 21, 2026) take effect Nov. 9, 2026. The deduction is up to $10,000 of qualified interest per return, reduced by $200 for each $1,000 of modified AGI over $100,000 ($200,000 joint), for loans taken out after 2024 on a new vehicle with final assembly in the US, in tax years 2025 through 2028. It covers only a vehicle bought for personal use, meaning you expected more than half its use to be personal. In the regulation's own example, a sole proprietor expecting 60% business use does not qualify, though the business share of the interest stays deductible as a business expense. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A tax deduction rule, not a fee. It covers only personal-use vehicles; the business share of interest stays a business expense. ### Whatnot will bill sellers for USPS weight adjustments from Nov 4 Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/whatnot/2026-11-04-whatnot-carrier-weight-adjustments/ Source: https://help.whatnot.com/hc/en-us/articles/45116465852557-Review-and-appeal-carrier-adjustments (Whatnot help: Review and appeal carrier adjustments) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: Whatnot. Category: Postage. Announced: not stated. Effective: 2026-11-04. For US shipments sent on or after November 4, 2026, USPS charges for packages that weigh more than their Whatnot-generated label go to the seller's Whatnot ledger. Until now Whatnot absorbed them. For now Whatnot still covers dimension and hazmat adjustments, and it doesn't pass on UPS adjustments yet. Sellers whose first sale was on or after Sept 5, 2026 aren't part of this rollout, and neither are sellers who use their own labels. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. Not a set fee. You pay USPS's charge only when the packed box weighs more than the label says. To avoid it, weigh the packed box and fix the shipping profile before you buy the label. You have 45 days to appeal a charge, and USPS decides the appeal. ### Whatnot Premier Shops lose their 10% commission discount on Nov 1 Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/whatnot/2026-11-01-whatnot-premier-shop-discount-ends/ Source: https://help.whatnot.com/hc/en-us/articles/31084236928909-Premier-Shop-Program (Whatnot help: Premier Shop Program) Source: https://help.whatnot.com/hc/en-us/articles/4847069165965-Whatnot-seller-fees (Whatnot: Seller fees (tiers)) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: Whatnot. Category: Fees. Announced: not stated. Effective: 2026-11-01. Until October 31, 2026, Whatnot cuts a Premier Shop's commission by a relative 10%, so 8% becomes 7.2%. Starting November 1 that discount goes away, and the rate depends only on the seller's four-week sales tier. Premier Shops keep the badge, the extra visibility in search and priority support. Qualifying still takes $50,000 in sales, 250 orders and 10 shows in 90 days. Effect on the seller's net: -$0.08 on a $10 sale, -$0.20 on a $25 sale, -$0.40 on a $50 sale. Basis: Premier Shop sellers only. A Tier 1 fashion Premier Shop going from 6.3% back to 7% keeps $0.07, $0.17 and $0.35 less; at the standard 8% tier (7.2% with the discount) it's $0.08, $0.20 and $0.40. Payment processing (2.9% + $0.30) is unchanged. ### Poshmark will charge you for heavy packages shipped without an upgraded label Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/poshmark/2026-10-26-poshmark-overweight-label-deductions/ Source: https://blog.poshmark.com/2026/10/08/shipping-heavier-items-how-label-upgrades-work/ (Poshmark Blog, Oct 8, 2026) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: Poshmark.

Where the category rate is 5% (Pre-Owned, five jewelry subcategories), the cut is 1 point: +$0.10 / +$0.25 / +$0.50, if the order's category is eligible; the auction page lists category groups and doesn't say which group Pre-Owned falls in. ### Amazon FBM: 90% of Amazon Business orders must arrive during business hours Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/amazon/2026-09-30-amazon-business-hour-delivery-rate/ Source: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/seller-forums/discussions/t/57222b70-40df-4574-aa0f-9f815c197987 (Amazon Seller Central news (News_Amazon): New business hour delivery requirement for seller-fulfilled shipments) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: Amazon.

Category: Postage. Announced: 2026-08-21. Effective: no date given. On July 16, 2026, USPS asked the Postal Regulatory Commission to let it count estimated fiscal 2026 density rate authority so it could move its yearly mailing price increase to January 2027. The PRC denied the request on Aug. 21, 2026 (Order No. 9696) but said USPS may still file in October 2026 for a January 2027 increase. The PRC's Oct. 14, 2026 rate-authority table puts the most USPS can raise First-Class Mail and Package Services (which includes Media Mail) at 2.105% on average. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. No January 2027 filing found in the Federal Register or the USPS newsroom as of Oct 19, 2026 (the PRC's docket search wasn't checked), so there is no price change to compute yet. As an illustration only: 2.105% of the $4.39 1 lb Media Mail price is about $0.09, but USPS can raise individual prices by more or less than the class average. ### eBay adds Authenticity Guarantee for coins $500 and up Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/ebay/2026-08-18-ebay-authenticity-guarantee-coins-500/ Source: https://community.ebay.com/forum/announcements-57928/topic/introducing-authenticity-guarantee-for-coins-470520/ (eBay Community Announcements (seller_news_team), Aug 18, 2026) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: eBay. Category: Policy. Announced: 2026-08-18. Effective: no date given. eBay's Authenticity Guarantee now covers single graded US and world coins, and single raw US coins, priced at $500 and up in the Coins: US, Canada and World categories on ebay.com. A sold coin ships to eBay's authenticator first. eBay pays for authentication, there's no opt-out, and sets, lots and collections aren't eligible. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A rule, not a fee: eBay covers authentication, but eligible coins must go to the authenticator and ship as separate orders. ### Payment apps' 24% backup withholding: the $20,000 and 200-transaction floor is final Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2026-08-10-irs-backup-withholding-20000-final/ Source: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/08/10/2026-16269/backup-withholding-on-third-party-network-transactions (Treasury/IRS final regulations (T.D. 10053), Federal Register, Aug 10, 2026) Source: https://www.irs.gov/publications/p1099 (IRS Publication 1099 (2026): 24% rate, TPSO thresholds) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: IRS. Category: Tax. Announced: 2026-01-09. Effective: 2026-08-10. Final regulations (T.D. 10053, published Aug. 10, 2026, adopting the Jan. 9, 2026 proposed rules without change) say a payment app or marketplace that must backup withhold (for example, because you haven't given it your taxpayer identification number) starts withholding only once your payments for the year exceed both $20,000 and 200 transactions, beginning with the payment that crosses the later of the two. If any of its payments to you in the previous year were reportable, it withholds on every payment from the start of the year. The rules apply to payments in calendar years beginning after Dec. 31, 2024, and the backup withholding rate is 24%. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A withholding rule, not a fee. Giving each platform your correct taxpayer ID avoids backup withholding. ### eBay Labels: Ground Advantage 3-5 lb up $1 to Zone 5, $2 to Zones 6-8 Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/ebay/2026-08-08-ebay-labels-ground-advantage-zones-5-8/ Source: https://community.ebay.com/forum/announcements-57928/topic/usps-ground-advantage-rate-update-effective-august-8-2026-474142/ (eBay Community Announcements (seller_news_team), Aug 10, 2026) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: eBay.

Poshmark says the most common cause is reusing a box that still has old hazmat labels or markings, and Mercari tells sellers to remove or fully black out old hazmat labels on reused boxes. Notice 123 doesn't list the fee for Media Mail or for retail counter prices. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A penalty, not a per-sale fee: $50 for each flagged commercial-label package.

USPS put off charging for missing or wrong dimensions until a second phase, tentatively early 2027; until then, the $3.00 Dimension Noncompliance Fee for missing or wrong dimensions still applies only to parcels over 1 cubic foot or 22 in. long. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A rule with no new fee yet for most parcels. Once phase two starts, a missing or wrong dimension could cost $3.00 per parcel (Notice 123). Enter real box sizes when you buy labels. ### IRS raises the 2026 business mileage rate to 76 cents from July 1 Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2026-07-01-irs-mileage-76-cents/ Source: https://www.irs.gov/irb/2026-29_irb (IRS Announcement 2026-11 (IRB 2026-29)) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: IRS. Category: Tax. Announced: not stated. Effective: 2026-07-01. Ends: 2026-12-31. Citing higher fuel prices, the IRS raised the business standard mileage rate to 76 cents a mile for driving on or after July 1, 2026 (Announcement 2026-11, in the July 13, 2026 Internal Revenue Bulletin). Miles driven before July 1 stay at 72.5 cents, so a 2026 mileage log needs the two halves totaled separately. Medical and military moving miles rose to 23.5 cents, and charity miles stay at 14 cents. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A deduction rate, not a fee. 1,000 business miles driven July-December 2026 give a $760 deduction, $35 more than at 72.5 cents. ### Amazon FBM: handling times must match how fast you actually ship Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/amazon/2026-06-29-amazon-handling-time-accuracy/ Source: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/seller-forums/discussions/t/da197a8b-e781-4530-99db-eb0ac8a5876d (Amazon Seller Central news (News_Amazon): New handling time requirements for seller-fulfilled products) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: Amazon. Category: Policy. Announced: 2026-05-27. Effective: 2026-06-29. From June 29, 2026, each seller-fulfilled SKU's handling time must match how fast you actually ship it. Amazon recommends turning on Automated Handling Time, which comes with late-shipment-rate protection. If a SKU you set by hand is consistently shipped at least one day faster than stated (Amazon monitors over 30 days), it gets flagged and you have 30 days to fix it, or Amazon manages that SKU's handling time itself. Custom, handmade and heavy-and-bulky less-than-truckload shipments are exempt. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A rule, not a fee. A padded handling time on a fast-shipping SKU gets flagged and can be overridden by Amazon. ### Fulfilled by TikTok: heavy single items cheaper, 5-20 lb multi-unit orders up to $3 more Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/tiktok/2026-05-20-tiktok-fbt-fulfillment-fees/ Source: https://seller-us.tiktok.com/university/essay?knowledge_id=3507056320268087&lang=en (TikTok Shop Academy (US): FBT Rate Card & FAQ (dated 07/13/2026)) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: TikTok Shop.

From May 20, 2026, Fulfilled by TikTok (FBT) fees for single-unit items from 16 to 50 lb dropped by $0.10 to $5 per unit, and multi-unit per-unit fees in the 20-50 lb tiers fell by $3.50 to $5. From June 18, 2026, per-unit fees for 2-, 3- and 4+-unit orders in the 5-20 lb tiers rose by $0.10 to $3.00. On June 1, 2026, FBT replaced its flat $3.00-per-order customer return handling fee with itemized per-unit return fees. From July 13, 2026, FBT also takes items over 50 lb, up to 150 lb, on new weight tiers; its fees from 4 oz to 50 lb didn't change then. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. Applies only to sellers who use FBT warehouses. The change depends on weight tier and units per order, and TikTok's per-tier rate tables are images, so exact per-tier amounts weren't verified. ### Etsy Purchase Protection now pays up to $250 on any eligible order Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/etsy/2026-05-07-etsy-purchase-protection-250-cap/ Source: https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/5850122619287-What-is-Etsy-s-Purchase-Protection-for-Sellers (Etsy help: What is Etsy's Purchase Protection for Sellers?

For cases opened from May 7, 2026, Etsy Purchase Protection pays up to $250 of the refund on an eligible order, even if the order total is higher, and the seller is charged the rest. Etsy suggests buying shipping insurance for orders over $250. To qualify, you must ship within your processing time with valid tracking or an Etsy label and reply to the buyer's Help request within 48 hours. A damaged item is covered only the first time it happens in a calendar year. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A rule, not a fee. On an eligible order over $250 that ends in a refund, you pay everything above $250 unless you have insurance. ### Mercari passes USPS's temporary 8% increase into Ground Advantage and Priority Mail labels Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/mercari/2026-05-07-mercari-labels-usps-8-percent/ Source: https://www.mercari.com/us/help_center/article/485/ (Mercari help: Shipping change announcements (Apr 7, 2026)) Source: https://www.mercari.com/us/help_center/article/169/ (Mercari help: Fees on Mercari) Source: https://about.usps.com/newsroom/national-releases/2026/0325-usps-announces-transportation-related-time-limited-price-change.pdf (USPS newsroom, Mar 25, 2026 (the 8% increase)) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: Mercari.

Mercari's Media Mail and First-Class Envelope labels were not affected. USPS's temporary prices run until 12 a.m. CT on Jan. 17, 2027. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. Mercari didn't publish the label prices before and after May 7 side by side, so the change per label can't be calculated from its pages. On USPS's own prices the 8% added $0.70 to a 1 lb retail Ground Advantage label in Zone 1. ### USPS adds a temporary 8% to Ground Advantage and Priority Mail Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/usps/2026-04-26-usps-time-limited-8-percent/ Source: https://about.usps.com/newsroom/national-releases/2026/0325-usps-announces-transportation-related-time-limited-price-change.pdf (USPS newsroom, Mar 25, 2026) Source: https://pe.usps.com/Archive/NHTML/DMMArchive20260406/Notice123.htm (USPS Notice 123, effective Apr 26, 2026 (archive)) Source: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/03/30/2026-06025/change-in-rates-of-general-applicability-for-competitive-products (USPS Governors' Decision 26-1, Federal Register, Mar 30, 2026) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: USPS.

For new US and UK listings from March 23, 2026, Depop's Boosted Listings fee is 12% of the item price (plus shipping if you arrange your own). It applies only when a buyer interacted with the boosted listing and bought within 28 days. Australia is 8%. Depop's page doesn't say which rate applies to listings created before then. US sellers still pay no Depop selling fee; processing is 3.3% + $0.45. Effect on the seller's net: -$1.20 on a $10 sale, -$3.00 on a $25 sale, -$6.00 on a $50 sale. Basis: The fee on a sale that counts as boosted (Depop shipping label), compared with not boosting. ### TikTok Shop Smart Promotion: 3.5% of GMV, now required to join platform campaigns Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/tiktok/2026-03-03-tiktok-smart-promotion/ Source: https://seller-us.tiktok.com/university/essay?knowledge_id=4827354015483691&lang=en (TikTok Shop Academy (US): US Smart Promotion Introduction / FAQ (dated 09/24/2026)) Source: https://seller-us.tiktok.com/university/essay?knowledge_id=5988482086864682&lang=en (TikTok Shop Academy: Referral fees by category (dated 10/08/2026)) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: TikTok Shop. Category: Fees. Announced: not stated. Effective: 2026-03-03. TikTok Shop's Smart Promotion charges a fixed 3.5% of shop GMV outside campaign periods, plus another 1.0-2.0 points during campaigns. In return, TikTok funds buyer discounts at least equal to the fee rate. Most sellers moved over from the older co-funded model by March 3, 2026. TikTok says enrolling became required to join platform campaigns, Flash Sales, Premium Offers and weekly promos 'starting in April', and brand campaigns since June. You can opt out at any time, but then you can't join those campaigns. Effect on the seller's net: -$0.35 on a $10 sale, -$0.88 on a $25 sale, -$1.75 on a $50 sale. Basis: Only if you're enrolled: 3.5% of the sale price outside campaigns (taking GMV as the item price), charged on top of the referral fee (6% for most categories, 5% for Pre-Owned). During campaigns (4.5% to 5.5%): -$0.45 to -$0.55, -$1.13 to -$1.38, -$2.25 to -$2.75. The discounts TikTok funds may bring in extra sales, which isn't counted here. ### Whatnot: no drop-off proof on a late US order means you pay the refund Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/whatnot/2026-03-02-whatnot-late-shipment-refunds/ Source: https://help.whatnot.com/hc/en-us/articles/360061195412-Whatnot-Seller-Protection-How-We-Resolve-Order-Issues-Together (Whatnot help: Seller Protection) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: Whatnot. Category: Policy. Announced: not stated. Effective: 2026-03-02. Since March 2, 2026, if a US domestic order ships late, the seller has no valid proof of drop-off and the buyer escalates, Whatnot takes the refund back from the seller. Valid proof is a drop-off photo from the in-app scanner, a Whatnot Manifest or carrier scan form, or a carrier acceptance or kiosk receipt. Orders must ship within two business days of the sale. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A rule, not a fee. The cost is the full refund on any late order you can't prove you dropped off. Dropping off within two business days and scanning every package with the in-app scanner avoids it. ### Amazon on-time delivery: below 90% now deactivates only the FBM listings that hurt your rate most Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/amazon/2026-02-28-amazon-otdr-deactivation-change/ Source: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/seller-forums/discussions/t/bb76566a-c8a4-468d-bb94-d49402c83023 (Amazon Seller Central news (News_Amazon): Update to OTDR listing deactivation process as of February 28, 2026) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: Amazon.

From February 28, 2026, falling below Amazon's 90% on-time delivery rate for seller-fulfilled orders deactivates only the listings that hurt your rate most. Before, all FBM listings were deactivated. Amazon can still pull all of them if you're far below 90% or keep missing. For standard shipping, you're protected from late deliveries if you turn on shipping settings automation and automated handling time and buy OTDR-protected labels through Amazon Buy Shipping or Veeqo. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A rule, not a fee. It eases the penalty, but late-delivery protection depends on buying labels through Buy Shipping or Veeqo. ### eBay's User Agreement bars LLM-driven bots and buy-for-me agents Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/ebay/2026-02-20-ebay-user-agreement-ai-agents/ Source: https://www.ebay.com/help/policies/member-behaviour-policies/user-agreement?id=4259 (eBay User Agreement) Verified: 2026-10-14; re-check pending Platform: eBay.

Poshmark replaced the five upgrade-label price tiers for packages between 6 and 10 lb, which could cost up to $22.50, with one $5.00 tier for 5.1-10 lb, and added a $10.00 tier for 10.1-15 lb. The seller pays the difference between the original and the upgraded label, and the whole order still ships in one package.

Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. Only for packages over 5 lb: a 5.1-10 lb upgrade is $5.00, against as much as $22.50 under the old tiers.

The old high-value exemption is gone. Category exemptions still apply, including handmade, dangerous goods and extra-large or heavy items.

The rule doesn't cover returns Amazon already refunded at first scan through prepaid return labels. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A rule, not a fee.

If you pay a helper, virtual assistant or other independent contractor in 2026, you need to file a Form 1099-NEC only once that person's payments reach $2,000 for the year, up from $600. The same $2,000 floor now applies to rent you pay in your business (Form 1099-MISC) and to backup withholding on these payments, and it will be indexed for inflation from 2027. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A filing rule, not a fee. Example: a packer paid $1,500 during 2026 needs no 1099-NEC, where the old $600 rule required one.

The IRS charges separately for a late filing with the IRS and for a late copy to the payee. For returns due in 2025 the top regular tier was $330. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. Applies if you pay a helper and file the 1099-NEC late. Charged separately for the IRS copy and the payee copy. ### 2026 business mileage rate: 72.5 cents a mile (Jan. 1-June 30) Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2026-01-01-irs-mileage-72-5-cents/ Source: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-sets-2026-business-standard-mileage-rate-at-725-cents-per-mile-up-25-cents (IRS IR-2025-128 (Notice 2026-10)) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: IRS. Category: Tax. Announced: 2025-12-29. Effective: 2026-01-01. Ends: 2026-06-30. The IRS set the standard mileage rate for business use of a car, van, pickup or panel truck at 72.5 cents a mile from Jan. 1, 2026, up 2.5 cents from 70 cents in 2025. It applies to gas, diesel, hybrid and fully electric vehicles. A mid-year change raised the rate to 76 cents for miles driven from July 1, 2026, so 72.5 cents covers January through June. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A deduction rate, not a fee. 100 business miles driven January-June 2026 give a $72.50 deduction, against $70.00 at the 2025 rate. ### Standard mileage rate: the depreciation part is 35 cents a mile for 2026 Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2026-01-01-irs-mileage-depreciation-35-cents/ Source: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/n-26-10.pdf (IRS Notice 2026-10) Verified: 2026-10-23 Platform: IRS. Category: Tax. Announced: 2025-12-29. Effective: 2026-01-01. Part of the standard mileage rate counts as depreciation, and that part lowers your vehicle's basis when you later sell or trade it in. Notice 2026-10 sets it at 35 cents a mile for 2026, up from 33 cents for 2025 and 30 cents for 2024. Keep a running total of business miles each year so you can figure the basis reduction when the vehicle goes. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A basis rule, not a fee. It matters when you sell or trade in a vehicle you deducted at the standard mileage rate. ### New $400 minimum QBI deduction for sellers with at least $1,000 of business income Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2026-01-01-irs-qbi-400-minimum-deduction/ Source: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/rp-25-32.pdf (IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32 (IR-2025-103)) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: IRS. Category: Tax. Announced: 2025-10-09. Effective: 2026-01-01. For tax years beginning after Dec. 31, 2025, the 20% qualified business income (QBI) deduction has a floor. If your QBI from businesses you materially participate in is at least $1,000, the deduction is at least $400. That matters when the regular 20% calculation comes to less than $400, for example with $1,000 to $1,999 of QBI, and both figures are indexed for inflation after 2026. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A deduction floor, not a fee: it lowers taxable income and does not change your net per sale. Example: $1,500 of active QBI gives a 20% deduction of $300, and the minimum raises it to $400. ### Section 179 expensing limit for 2026: $2,560,000, phasing out above $4,090,000 Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2026-01-01-irs-section-179-2026-limits/ Source: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/rp-25-32.pdf (IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32, section 4) Verified: 2026-10-23 Platform: IRS. Category: Tax. Announced: 2025-10-09. Effective: 2026-01-01. For tax years beginning in 2026, you can elect to expense up to $2,560,000 of section 179 property such as shelving, scanners, computers or a work vehicle. The limit shrinks dollar for dollar once the cost of section 179 property you place in service during the year passes $4,090,000, and an SUV counts for no more than $32,000. Figures from Rev. Proc. 2025-32. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A deduction limit, not a fee. Most resellers are far below it; the SUV cap is the line that usually matters. ### 1099-K: back to $20,000 and more than 200 transactions Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/irs/2025-10-23-irs-1099k-20000-threshold/ Source: https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-issues-faqs-on-form-1099-k-threshold-under-the-one-big-beautiful-bill-dollar-limit-reverts-to-20000 (IRS IR-2025-107 (Fact Sheet 2025-08)) Verified: 2026-10-19 Platform: IRS. Category: Tax. Announced: 2025-10-23. Effective: retroactive. The One, Big, Beautiful Bill retroactively restored the pre-2021 rule: payment apps and marketplaces must send a 1099-K only if your payments for goods or services total over $20,000 in more than 200 transactions. They may still send one for less, and the IRS says you must report all income either way. General information, not tax advice: check with a tax professional. Effect on the seller's net: no per-sale fee effect. A reporting rule, not a fee. Keep your own records of sales, fees and costs regardless of the form. ### eBay: Below Standard sellers' extra final value fee rises to 7% after four months in a row Page: https://resellerindex.com/changes/ebay/2026-07-01-ebay-below-standard-7-percent/ Source: https://www.ebay.com/help/selling/fees-credits-invoices/selling-fees?id=4822 (eBay: Selling fees (US)) Verified: 2026-10-14 (per the saved copy of that date) Platform: eBay. Category: Fees. Announced: not stated. Effective: no date given. A US seller rated Below Standard for four or more months in a row pays an additional final value fee of 7% of the sale total, until the seller level improves to Above Standard or higher. Before the fourth month the extra is 6%. A Very High 'item not as described' rate for four or more months in a row raises that category's extra fee from 5% to 6%, until the rate improves to High or better. eBay calculates these additional fees as a percentage of the total amount of the sale. Effect on the seller's net: -$0.10 on a $10 sale, -$0.25 on a $25 sale, -$0.50 on a $50 sale. Basis: Only for sellers Below Standard four or more months in a row: 1 more point of the sale total, shown on item price alone (no shipping or tax). A Very High 'not as described' rate for four or more months costs the same 1 point in that category. Everyone else: no change. ## Price histories Page: https://resellerindex.com/history/ Source: https://pe.usps.com/Archive/DMM (USPS Postal Explorer DMM archive) Source: https://pe.usps.com/Archive/PriceFile (USPS price file archive) The Reseller Index compiled these datasets: the dates, the periods and the cross-checks are ours; every price in them is USPS's, from the edition named on its row. ### USPS Forever stamp prices, 1 oz First-Class Mail letter, since 2007 Page: https://resellerindex.com/history/stamp-prices/ Data: https://resellerindex.com/data/history/forever-stamp.csv Data: https://resellerindex.com/data/history/forever-stamp.json Source: https://pe.usps.com/Archive/DMM (USPS Postal Explorer DMM archive) Source: https://pe.usps.com/Archive/PriceFile (USPS price file archive) Source: https://about.usps.com/who/profile/history/pdf/domestic-letter-rates-since-1863.pdf (USPS Historian) Source: https://pe.usps.com/text/dmm300/604.htm (USPS DMM 604.1.10) Verified: 2026-10-19 License: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ What a USPS Forever stamp costs, which is the single-piece First-Class Mail 1 oz stamped letter price, one row per price period since the stamp went on sale on April 12, 2007, keyed to the date each price took effect. From the USPS price lists in the Postal Explorer DMM archive (Rates and Fees through 2008, Notice 123 from 2009; 2012 from Postal Bulletin 22325), each row cross-checked against the USPS Historian's letter-rate table and other USPS copies.

Unit: USD per stamp: what USPS sells a Forever stamp for, the single-piece First-Class Mail price for a stamped letter up to 1 oz (the first row, from April 12, 2007, is the 41-cent price that took effect on May 14, 2007; see its note) Method: Each row starts on the effective date printed on the first USPS price list that shows the price (not the date of the DMM archive edition that carries it) and ends the day before the next price took effect; the first row starts on April 12, 2007, when the stamp went on sale (Postal Bulletin 22203A). Prices are read from the First-Class Mail retail single-piece letter table: the Rates and Fees page of each DMM edition through 2008, Notice 123 from 2009, the stamped-letter price from the January 26, 2014 price list on, when Notice 123 began listing stamped and metered letters separately. USPS Domestic Mail Manual 604.1.10 sets the Forever stamp at this price.

Postal Explorer archive starts with its Aug 10, 2003 edition, and its earliest Rates and Fees page, in the Jan 6, 2005 edition, prints these prices as effective June 30, 2002, so the history starts there. Media Mail prices did not change again until Jan 8, 2006. - 2006-01-08: On Jan 8, 2006, USPS raised Media Mail single-piece prices 12 to 13.5 percent, depending on weight, in its first price increase since 2002 (Postal Bulletin 22168A). - 2007-05-14: 1 to 4 lb went up and 5 to 70 lb went down: 1 lb rose from $1.59 to $2.13, while 10 lb fell from $5.49 to $5.19 and 70 lb from $25.89 to $25.59. - 2016-04-10: USPS's 4.3 percent exigent surcharge ended on Apr 10, 2016, under a Postal Regulatory Commission order, which lowered prices for mailing services, Media Mail included. Gaps (no confirmed USPS price list): - 2012-01-22 to 2013-01-26: USPS raised Media Mail and Library Mail prices by an average of 2.6% on January 22, 2012 (Postal Bulletin 22325). The only archived 2012 Notice 123 is marked DRAFT and no other USPS edition or price file covers 2012, so its prices are left out. The prices USPS filed are in Postal Regulatory Commission Docket No. R2012-3; the Commission's Federal Register notice of Nov 1, 2011 lists the filing and puts the planned Media Mail and Library Mail average at 2.581%. The Commission's docket system serves its documents only through a script-driven page, so we have not matched them to a final price list.

Temporary holiday and time-limited prices are marked. From the USPS price lists in the Postal Explorer DMM archive (Rates and Fees through 2008, Notice 123 from 2009; Jan 18, 2009 from Postal Bulletin 22247), each row cross-checked against another USPS edition or price file. Unit: USD per package at USPS retail prices; Zone 4 wherever the price depends on distance Method: Each row starts on the effective date printed on the first USPS price list that shows its prices (the Rates and Fees page of each DMM edition through 2008, the Notice 123 published in Postal Bulletin 22247 for Jan 18, 2009, and Notice 123 from May 11, 2009) (not the date of the DMM archive edition that carries it) and ends the day before the next price took effect. The USPS announcements end temporary prices at 12 a.m. (midnight) Central Time on the date they give, so a temporary row ends the day before that date, or the day before another temporary price is added on top of it. Prices are read from the retail tables: First-Class Mail single-piece parcels, First-Class Package Service - Retail, USPS Ground Advantage - Retail and Priority Mail Retail. Every price is cross-checked against at least one other USPS document (see cross_check_match). From 2017, every row is matched against USPS price files; earlier rows against other Notice 123 editions. | From | To | 8 oz package | 15.999 oz Ground Advantage | Priority Mail 1 lb | Priority Mail 5 lb | 8 oz product | 8 oz zone | Temporary price | USPS source | Cross-checked against | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | 2007-05-14 | 2008-05-11 | $2.32 | -

2007-05-14: First-Class Mail single-piece prices depend on shape from May 14, 2007; before that one table priced letters, flats and parcels alike. A 1 lb Priority Mail package cost $4.60 to every zone. - 2008-05-12: A 1 lb Priority Mail package cost $4.80 to every zone. - 2009-01-18: Only Priority Mail and the other shipping services changed on Jan 18, 2009; First-Class Mail and Media Mail kept their May 12, 2008 prices until May 11, 2009. USPS said retail Priority Mail prices would rise 4.7 percent on average and the unzoned 1 lb price would be $4.95, the price to every zone. - 2009-05-11: The 1 lb Priority Mail price was still one price, $4.95, to every zone; it became a price by zone on Jan 4, 2010. - 2016-04-10: The 8 oz price fell from $3.54 to $3.40 when USPS's 4.3 percent exigent surcharge on mailing services, First-Class Mail included, ended under a Postal Regulatory Commission order. - 2017-09-03: First price list to name the 8 oz retail product First-Class Package Service - Retail (the Jan 22, 2017 list shows First-Class Mail parcels). - 2019-01-27: First-Class Package Service - Retail is priced by zone from this price list on; earlier rows show one price for any distance. - 2020-01-26: The Notice 123 and USPS price file effective Oct 18, 2020 show the same retail prices for these packages. - 2021-12-26: The 2021 holiday prices ended at 12:00 a.m. Central Time on Dec 26, 2021 (USPS newsroom, Aug 10, 2021). The Dec 26, 2021 DMM archive edition carries the Notice 123 effective Aug 29, 2021, whose prices applied again. - 2023-07-09: First price list with USPS Ground Advantage - Retail; First-Class Package Service no longer appears in it. USPS said it would not add holiday surcharges in the 2023 season (USPS newsroom, Sep 19, 2023). - 2026-04-26: The Notice 123 effective Jul 12, 2026 shows the same retail prices for these packages. Gaps (no confirmed USPS price list): - 2012-01-22 to 2013-01-26: USPS changed prices on January 22, 2012: First-Class Mail retail parcels rose an average of 10.9% (Postal Bulletin 22325) and Priority Mail retail prices an average of 3.2% (Postal Bulletin 22326). The only archived 2012 Notice 123 is marked DRAFT and no USPS price file covers 2012, so its prices are left out. The prices USPS filed are in two Postal Regulatory Commission dockets: R2012-3 for First-Class Mail and the other market-dominant products, and CP2012-2 for Priority Mail and the other competitive products, whose Federal Register notice says average retail Priority Mail prices rise about 3.2 percent. The Commission's docket system serves its documents only through a script-driven page, so we have not matched them to a final price list.

From USPS Notice 123 price lists and Postal Bulletins, each row cross-checked against another USPS document. Unit: USD per envelope or box at USPS retail prices (Post Office and Forever Prepaid packaging); one price to any domestic address, up to 70 lb Method: Each row starts on the effective date printed on the first USPS price list or Postal Bulletin that shows its prices (not the date of the DMM archive edition that carries it) and ends the day before the next price took effect. Prices are read from the retail Priority Mail section of each archived Notice 123 (the 2009 list gives them in the retail table's footnotes 4-6). USPS ends temporary prices at 12 a.m. Central Time on the date it gives, so a temporary row ends the day before. Every row is checked against at least one other USPS document: another Notice 123 edition, the archive's HTML copy, a USPS price file (from 2017) or a Postal Bulletin. On Oct 19, 2026 every row was checked again against a fresh download of its own source (the 23 archived Notice 123 PDFs and Postal Bulletins 22247 and 22326) with a second, independent parser, and all 58 archived Notice 123 texts agree with the row in effect on their printed dates. | From | To | Flat Rate Envelope | Legal Flat Rate Envelope | Padded Flat Rate Envelope | Small Flat Rate Box | Medium Flat Rate Box | Large Flat Rate Box | APO/FPO/DPO Large Flat Rate Box | draft match url | Temporary price | USPS source | Cross-checked against | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | 2009-01-18 | 2010-01-03 | $4.95 | -
