27 August 2009 | 10:31AM EST


As previously communicated, selected fees associated with Stores on eBay.com.au will be changing from 10 September 2009.

The changes include insertion fees, final value fees, subscription fees and some feature fees for store subscribers.

All other fees on eBay.com.au remain unchanged.

Please take the time to review the revised Store package fees. The fee changes will be effective from 00:00:01am (AEST) on 10 September 2009.

If you currently have a Store there are a few things you need to consider when these changes come into effect.

  • The pricing associated with your listings will change. This also effects any Good Til Cancelled listings you may have
  • Your Store subscription price will change and will be pro-rata'd for the month

You may also wish to review the FAQs about how the fee changes impact you.

The following policies are being updated:

A small number of other policies will also have some very minor text changes made to them however the policies themselves will not be changed.

Selling tools
From mid September, sellers will have a new Find & Replace feature available in the Sell Your Item form allowing you to quickly and easily edit multiple quantity fixed price listings.

Also being introduced in mid September is a new feature allowing you to choose which countries you post to. So if you want to sell to most of Europe but not every country you can simply pick which countries you’d like to sell to.

For more information about the new tools/features being introduced, visit inside selling.
