Do (Amazon) MarketPlace customers have to pay extra for shipping costs?
Amazon.com collects fees only when your item sells. At that time, Amazon.com collects your sales price and shipping costs from the buyer, deducts a commission of 6 to 15 percent of the sales price, a per-transaction fee of $0.99, and a variable closing fee. The $0.99 per-transaction fee is waived for Pro Merchant Subscribers. Commission rates are as follows: * Computers = 6 percent * Camera & Photo, Cell Phones & Service, and Electronics items = 8 percent * Items in the Everything Else Store = 10 percent * Musical Instruments = 12 percent * All other product lines = 15 percent Variable Closing Fees Charged to Seller: Domestic Standard Domestic Expedited International Standard Books $1.20 $1.20 $1.20 Music $0.70 $0.70 $0.70 Videos $0.70 $0.70 $0.70 DVDs $0.70 $0.70 $0.70 Video Games $1.20 $1.20 Not available Software & Computer Games $1.20 $1.20 Not available Electronics $0.45 + $0.05/lb.* $0.6
