In Response To: eBay RAISING FEES AGAIN! ()

Here They are

***Fee Changes***

Today, we are announcing a number of changes to the current eBay price structure. Effective

January 31, 2002, we are increasing Final Value Fees, adding a new Reserve Fee price point,

charging a fee to use Buy It Now, increasing eBay Motors vehicle Insertion and Final Value

Fees, and in late February, changing how we charge Final Value Fees for Dutch listings.

Other Feature and Insertion Fees, and fees for eBay Premier and Real Estate, will remain

unchanged.

eBay.com Changes:

*Final Value Fee

We are adding 0.25% to each Final Value Fee price point.

Final Value:

$0.01 - $25.00 Current: 5% New: 5.25%

$25.01 - $1000.00 Current: 2.5% New: 2.75%

$1000.01 and up Current: 1.25% New: 1.50%

*Reserve Fee

We are adding a new price point for reserve listings above $200.

Reserve Price

$0.01 - $24.99 Current: $0.50 New: $0.50

$25.00 - $199.99 Current: $1.00 New: $1.00

$200.00 and up Current: $1.00 New: $2.00

*Buy It Now Fee

A $0.05 Feature Fee will be charged for all auction-style items listed with the Buy It Now

feature. The new fee will not apply to eBay Stores Buy It Now items.

*Dutch Fee

The standard Final Value Fee schedule will apply to each item sold, not to the total dollar

amount of all the items sold. Thus, the Final Value Fee for each item sold will be identical

to the standard eBay Final Value Fees outlined above.

*eBay Motors Changes

eBay Motors is increasing Insertion and Final Value Fees for Passenger Vehicles and Other

Vehicles from $25.00 to $40.00. In addition, a $0.50 Feature Fee will be charged for all

Motorcycle auction items listed with the Buy It Now feature, and a $1.00 Feature Fee will be

charged for all Passenger Vehicles and Other Vehicles listed with the Buy It Now feature.

eBay Motors Parts & Accessories fees remain identical to eBay.com fees.

*eBay Stores Final Value Fee Change

Beginning in late February, all fixed price eBay Stores items that are sold in multiple

quantities to the same buyer will have Final Value Fees calculated on a per item basis.

Final Value Fees for single item sales are already calculated on a per item basis.

International Fees:

New Zealand and Singapore will adopt all of the applicable fees described above. Australia,

Canada, Ireland, Sweden, and the United Kingdom are increasing Final Value Fees and Reserve

Fees on February 1, 2002 local site time. All other international sites are not affected by

these changes. More information on the international price increases is available by

clicking on the following links:

*Canada

*Australia

*United Kingdom, Ireland and Sweden

We recognize that price increases directly impact our users, so we do not raise fees lightly

or without considering the impact to our community. These increases will help us continue to

build a vibrant marketplace by allowing us to invest heavily in technology, marketing and

customer support, making it possible for millions of people to discover and use eBay.

eBay
