eBay and Amazon Fees

Looking for an alternative to eBay? Look at MarketWall.

Sites such as eBay and Amazon force sellers to pay large fees and commissions. MarketWall is completely free. It's your money. Make your choice.

eBay charges sellers an "Insertion Fee" to post a listing, even if the item doesn't sell. eBay then charges a "Final Value Fee" as commission when an item is sold. If you sell something for $25.00, eBay will steal almost 11%. eBay increases its fees almost every year. Amazon deducts a commission of 6% to 15% of the purchase price.

Sell your items on MarketWall and keep all of your money.

Deal locally. Buy and sell items in your local area.

The other problem with eBay and Amazon is that the transactions are long-distance. The buyer and seller are frequently in different cities or countries. Neither the buyer nor the seller knows if they can trust each other.

On eBay and Amazon, the buyer can't see the item in person, so the buyer doesn't know if the item is exactly what they want. The buyer doesn't even know if the seller will actually ship the item. The seller doesn't know if the buyer's payment will clear. It's a stressful situation for everyone.

The solution is to buy and sell items in your local area. The buyer and seller can meet in person. The buyer can pay in cash. When dealing locally, everyone knows exactly what they are getting. The solution is MarketWall.

MarketWall is perfect for selling things you don't need anymore. Did you get a new couch? Sell the old couch on MarketWall. Do you have clothes you haven't worn in 12 months? Sell the clothes on MarketWall. MarketWall is fun, easy, and free.
