What price should I list at to make a profit?

Add what you paid, your postage and the profit you want, then work back through the marketplace's fees. This calculator does that for every marketplace at once and shows the lowest price that gets you there on each.

What does break-even mean here?

The price at which the sale pays back exactly what you spent on the item and its postage after fees, with nothing left over. Selling below it loses money.

Why is the list price different on each marketplace?

Each one takes a different cut. Some charge a percentage of the sale, some add a per-order fee or payment processing, and on some the buyer pays the fees instead of the seller.

Enter what you paid and the profit you want. Each marketplace gets the lowest price that still leaves you that profit after its fees, and the price where you only break even.

How the prices are worked out

Each marketplace's fees come from the same models as our fee calculators, checked against the marketplace's own pages. The calculator searches for the lowest price at which the sale leaves you the profit you asked for, to the cent, so stepped fees (a per-order fee that rises above a threshold, a minimum fee) are counted the way the marketplace charges them.

Fees are for a private seller selling clothing with nothing promoted. Open a marketplace's own calculator to change its options, such as your seller type or a category.
