Children's sports shoes and infants' sports shoes are not included in this scope, that is, children's and infants' sports shoes selling for $100 or more are still free of sales commission.

After recovering the sneaker commission, eBay is still more competitive than Stock X and GOAT?

As early as December 2019, eBay announced thatExemption of sales commission for "all sneakers priced above $100"

Blueocean Yiguan learned that eBay exempted this fee for the seller at that time in order to compete with Stock X, GOAT and other platforms specializing in sports shoes.

The person in charge of men's shoes and clothing at eBay said that for sports shoes fans, waiving the seller's fees can save money and save up to buy more sports shoes. At the same time, it will also attract more sports shoes sellers, enrich the types and quantity of sports shoes, give consumers more choices, and to some extent, increase consumer stickiness.

Now, to restore the sales commission of men's and women's sports shoes, eBay is to continue to invest in the platform, add new functions and services, such as "authentic certification" and "3D reality view", and make sports shoes more transparent and easier to win the trust of consumers.

It is worth noting that in October last year, eBay said it would"Authenticity Guarantee" planCovering new and second-hand collectible sneakers (both selling for more than $100). However, from eBay's point of view, the sneaker commission to be recovered will not involve its "authenticity guarantee"Plan.

Although the sales commission of sports shoes has been restored, eBay said that it still has more advantages for sellers compared with GOAT, Stock X, Stadium Goods and other platforms that have a direct competitive relationship.

At present, GOAT charges the seller "$5+9.5% commission+2.9% cash expense". StockX charges 10% of the transaction fee, plus 3% of the payment fee. Stadium Goods charges 20% of the commission, plus 1% of the payment fee.

EBay, on the other hand, only charges 7-8% commission and does not pay any commission.
