If you put up an item for sale on ebay, and if no one buys it, do you still have to pay a comission? And do comission rates vary on differently priced items?

Why have a buy now price? If you are not in a hurry to sell, then is there any point in having one?

You pay 3 fees:
-listing fee
-final value fee
-paypal fees

Check their fee page in the help section for more ifo on these and how much they will be. You always pay the listing fee, you only pay the final value fee if it sells and only pay the paypal fees in you use paypal to get money.

Buy it now prices are normally if you want a set price and someojne may want it so much they aren't willing to risk bidding on it.

Any more help, PM me
