Fees

Marketplace (general items)

For both casual and in-trade sellers, success fees apply to auctions if an item sells. Fees can be refunded if the sale isn’t completed.

High volume listing fees (10c per listing) apply when you go over your listing allowance.

Feel free to contact us about special rates for registered charities.

Casual sellers (not in-trade)

Success fees for casual sellers are based on the price of the item sold.

Success fees – casual sellers Calculate success fees
Sale price Success fee
$1 or less $0 (No success fee)
More than $1 7.9% of sale price (maximum success fee = $249)

In-trade sellers

Success fees for in-trade sellers are based on the price of the item sold and the cost of shipping (the ’final sales value’). For more information, please see our blog post.

New Zealand in-trade sellers may become eligible for a Gold Trade Rebate if the sale meets all the specified criteria.

From time to time, we test new pricing on fees by raising the price or offering a discount. Price changes may run for a limited time, and be specific to a particular category, promotional extra, optional add-on, listing method or success fee.

We sometimes A/B test our pricing, so some members will be offered a different price to others . If you have any questions about this, please contact us.

On 3 May 2019, we introduced a new car listing process which includes:

  • Simplified listing options - Premium, Standard and Basic.
  • Up-front pricing - we've removed auction success and withdrawal fees.
  • Longer listing length - listings now last up to 90 days onsite, including promotional extras.
  • A different process if your car doesn't sell - you can renew your listing for another 30 days for a reduced fee.

Listing length

You can advertise for 90 days, which means that any promotional extras purchased as part of your listing option will also last 90 days.
For auctions, you can run as many auctions as you like within 90 days. Auctions still have a maximum duration of 14 days and you have 45 days from when the auction expires to relist before itís removed from the site and is archived.
After 90 days, if your car hasn't sold, you'll be able to renew your advertisement for a reduced fee.

What happens after 90 days

If after 90 days your car hasn't sold, you can renew your listing for a reduced listing fee. The renewed listing will last for 30 days. Any questions, answers or watchers will not be carried over to your new listing.
For auctions, you can run as many auctions as you like within the 30 days. Auctions still have a maximum duration of 14 days.
Don't forget - you have 45 days once a listing has closed to renew before it's removed from the site and is archived.
