Understanding Sneaker Marketplace Fees

Different marketplaces charge different fees, which can significantly impact what buyers pay and what sellers receive. Our comparison tool shows you the true costs so you can make informed decisions.

StockX Fees

Buyers: List price + ~3% processing fee + $13.95 shipping (US domestic).

Sellers: Commission varies by seller level (9.5-12%) + $13.95 shipping. Level 1 sellers (0-$5k annual sales) pay 12%. Higher volume sellers get lower rates.

GOAT Fees

Buyers: List price + ~9.5% platform fee + ~$12 shipping.

Sellers: 9.5% commission with free shipping labels. Optional instant cash out adds 2.9% + $0.30 fee.

eBay Fees

Buyers: Usually just the listing price (shipping often included).

Sellers: 13.25% final value fee for sneakers over $150 + payment processing (2.9% + $0.30). eBay's Authenticity Guarantee is included in the seller fee.

Tips for Buyers

• Compare the "Buyer Total" column, not just list prices
• eBay often has the lowest buyer total due to included shipping
• Consider authentication - StockX and GOAT always authenticate, eBay authenticates items over $200
• Create a price alert to be notified when prices drop

Tips for Sellers

• Compare the "Seller Net" column to see your actual payout
• GOAT typically offers the highest payout for most sellers
• StockX can be competitive if you're a high-volume seller (Level 3-4)
• eBay has higher fees but also a larger buyer pool
