How to Price a Marketplace Listing

Set a competitive price by considering the item's condition, included accessories, comparable listings, shipping costs, and payment-processing fees.

Start With Comparable Items

Research items with the same brand, model, age, condition, and included accessories. An asking price is not always the amount an item eventually sells for, so compare several sources when possible.

Consider the Item's Condition

Be realistic about wear, repairs, modifications, missing parts, and cosmetic damage. Clear photographs and an honest condition description help buyers understand why an item is priced the way it is.

Include Everything the Buyer Receives

Cases, power supplies, cables, manuals, original packaging, and accessories can affect value. Clearly state what is and is not included.

Account for Shipping

Estimate the item's packaged size and weight before setting the price. Consider the cost of the box, cushioning, carrier service, tracking, and any optional carrier services.

Understand Marketplace Fees

OohYeah is commission-free. Sellers keep the sale price, excluding standard PayPal payment-processing fees. Check PayPal's current terms rather than relying on an estimated fee.

Review the listing before publishing to make sure the price, shipping terms, condition, and included items agree with one another.
