Same item, same price — wildly different take-home. Enter your sale amount and see every major US marketplace ranked by what lands in your pocket, using 2026 published rates.
Each platform's published fee schedule is applied to your sale amount: percentage commissions, fixed per-order fees, tier thresholds (Poshmark's $15 split, Grailed's $120 split), minimums (OfferUp, Facebook) and caps (Reverb's $500). Effective rate = total fees ÷ sale price.
Same item, same price, different platform. Ranked by take-home on a $50 sale (2026 published rates, seller-side fees only):

Note: lower fees don't always mean more profit — Vinted charges sellers nothing but has the smallest US audience; eBay costs the most but brings the most traffic. Use the live comparison above with your own price.
Every platform advertises a headline rate, and almost none of them is what you actually pay. eBay says 13.6% but adds $0.40, making a $20 sale cost 15.6%. Poshmark says 20% but charges $2.95 flat under $15 — a $10 sale loses 29.5%. Whatnot says 8% but processing pushes it to ~11.2% at $30. Grailed says 6% but with 3.49% + $0.49 processing a $50 item really costs ~10.5%. The comparison metric that works is effective rate: total fees divided by total sale price, computed at your actual price point. That is what this ranking tool calculates for 20+ platforms on any amount you enter. Ignore marketing rates; compare take-home dollars on the exact price you charge.
A fixed per-order fee is a regressive tax: it is the same dollars whether you sell a $10 tee or a $500 jacket, so its percentage weight explodes as price falls. Poshmark's $2.95 under-$15 fee is 29.5% at $10 and 19.7% at $15 — the reason bundling cheap items or pricing at $15+ is standard Poshmark strategy. OfferUp's $1.99 minimum is 13.3% at $15. GOAT's $5 per item is 6.25% on an $80 pair before the 9.5% commission and 2.9% cashout, pushing sub-$100 sneakers to about 18% all-in. The counter-strategies are the same everywhere: bundle to raise order value, set a price floor below which you switch platforms, or sell cheap inventory locally where fees are zero (Facebook local, OfferUp local, Vinted's 0% seller model).
Fee is one side of a two-sided equation; the other side is what the platform sells for and how fast. eBay's 13.6% + $0.40 beats Vinted's 0% whenever eBay's auction dynamics or 130M+ buyers push the final price more than ~16% higher — which routine does for rare, collectible and high-demand items. Amazon's 15% referral plus FBA costs is worth it when the Buy Box converts at multiples of a standalone store. StockX's ~12% all-in beats a 0% Craigslist meetup for $400 sneakers because authentication is what makes strangers pay market price. The correct calculation: expected take-home = (expected sale price on that platform) × (1 − effective fee rate), weighted by time-to-sale. Run your realistic price on each platform in the tool above, not the same price on all of them — the market clears higher where the buyers are.
Vinted (sellers pay 0%) and Depop (3.3% + $0.45) are cheapest in fashion; Facebook Marketplace (5% shipped) and Mercari (10%) follow. eBay at 13.6% + $0.40 is among the priciest — but brings the most traffic.
Not always. A 10% fee on a platform with your buyers beats 0% where nobody shops. Fee is one input; audience is the other.
Often — TikTok Shop went 2%→6%→8% in two years, Depop dropped 10%→3.3% in the US. This site tracks the published schedules; last review date is on every calculator.
Among seller-fee platforms: Vinted first (sellers pay 0% — you keep the full $25, buyer pays ~5% + $0.70 protection), then Depop at 3.3% + $0.45 (~$1.28 fee, keep ~$23.72), then Facebook Marketplace shipped at 5% (~$1.25, keep ~$23.75 — effectively tied with Depop), then Mercari at 10% ($22.50). Poshmark's $2.95 flat fee under $15 does not apply at $25 — its 20% takes $5 (keep $20) — and eBay's 13.6% + $0.40 takes $3.80 (keep ~$21.20). Cheapest is not always best: Vinted and Depop only make sense if your buyers are there.
Yes — fixed fees fade and percentage tiers flip. At $50: Vinted still $0, Depop ~$2.10, Facebook ~$2.50, Mercari $5, eBay ~$7.20, Poshmark $10 (20%), Grailed ~$5.24 (6% tier + processing), Etsy ~$5.20. At $100 the tier boundaries bite: Grailed crosses $120 only above it, so at $100 it is still ~$9.98 all-in, Poshmark takes a flat $20, eBay ~$14, Mercari $10, Depop ~$3.75, and Whatnot ≈ $11.20. Depop and Facebook stay cheapest where they have an audience; Poshmark's 20% makes it the most expensive major fashion venue at every price above $15.
Because fee schedules mix three ingredients in different proportions: fixed per-order fees ($0.40 on eBay, $5 on GOAT, $0.49 on Grailed), flat minimums ($2.95 on Poshmark under $15, $1.99 on OfferUp, $0.40 on Facebook), and tier thresholds (Poshmark at $15, Grailed at $120, Reverb's $500 cap at $10,000). Fixed costs dominate at low prices — a $2.95 fee is 29.5% of a $10 sale — so cheap items should go to zero-fee or percentage-only platforms. At high prices, caps and seller-level discounts (StockX down to 7.5%) flip the ranking. Enter your actual price in the tool above: the correct platform is a function of price, not brand.
