The total sellers’ fees will go down in most cases under the new pricing structure. The main change will be that in the case of multiple items the fees will be charged as a one off transaction no matter how many are listed. This will help big volume sellers immensely. Fixed-price items currently make up 43% of listings on eBay and attract a higher volume as buyers don’t have to enter into the bidding process and wait for a auction to close.

The changover will occur on September 16th and similar changes will follow in the UK and Germany. It will be complemented by a new more indepth search interface allowing users to focus on auctions or fixed price listings. The change is timed to be fully up and running for eBay’s busy Christmas period.
