One tool, better buying decisions

Whether you sell on eBay, Whatnot or elsewhere, sale price alone never tells you the whole story. Use this free calculator to estimate what stays in your pocket after the costs that come with selling a secondhand item.

See your real costs

Enter what you paid, what the buyer pays, postage, packing supplies, platform fees and promotion charges. The estimate updates as you type.

Set a maximum buy price

Tell the calculator how much profit you want. It estimates the most you can pay for the item and still reach that target.

Check margin & ROI

See estimated profit in dollars, profit margin, return on costs and the break-even sale price before committing to a purchase.

A quick example

You find a collectible for $8 and think it could sell for $45. Enter any shipping charged to the buyer, what you’ll pay to ship it, your supplies and your actual marketplace fees. You’ll immediately see an estimated net profit and whether it clears your target. Swap in your own numbers whenever you’re sourcing.

Important: Marketplace fees vary by category, account and transaction. The calculator starts with example rates, which you can change; its results are estimates, not official fee quotes or tax advice.
