eBay

Resell sourced goods

What it is
Buyer-demand marketplace; you source inventory
What you need
Sourcing skill
How you get paid
Marketplace price; final-value fees ~13% (after-earning)
Requirements people miss
Account verification is required before you can buy or sell. Individual and business seller registration are separate paths; business registration asks for business name, type, address and beneficial owners
Worker costs
Their own selling-fees page, fetched 2026-08-27: 'Every month, you get up to 250 zero insertion fee listings' — beyond that allowance, insertion fees are '$0.35 per listing', charged per listing and per category and non-refundable if the item doesn't sell. When an item sells, 'we charge one final value fee' — 13.6% of the sale up to $7,500 plus 2.35% on the portion above, for most categories (their page lists per-category variations) — 'you don't have to worry about third-party payment processing fees'

What workers rate the app

The rating of the app workers use — never the customer app. Each store is its own witness; we show both and never average them. The count is what makes a score mean something. Click a listing to see the number as it stands today.

Apple App Store
eBay online shopping & selling4.8 from 4,968,892 ratings — reported, not confirmed · checked 2026-09-02
Google Play
eBay online shopping & selling4.5 from 5.02M reviews — reported, not confirmed · checked 2026-09-02

One app serves both workers and customers here, so this rating blends both populations.

Ruling: marketplace supplies buyer demand

Every claim on this card, traced — 13 claims:

How you get in read from the company's own page
resource-package-v7.md Part 1: their own help page — register as an individual or a business seller
How you get paid unproven — carried from an older research method and not yet re-read from a source
Inherited at the v8 migration from the record's evidence class (Verified-official). This claim does not yet say where IT came from; the record does.
Local operating status derived from our own coverage research, not from the company's words
mktcle-reclass (owner ruling 2026-08-26): STRUCTURALLY UNSOURCEABLE from provider property — companies do not state their metro lists, so no re-fetch can ever pay this claim. Reclassified out of the owed pile into the declared class: derived from our own coverage research, not from the company's words.
Requirements people miss unproven — carried from an older research method and not yet re-read from a source
Inherited at the v8 migration from the record's evidence class (Verified-official). This claim does not yet say where IT came from; the record does.

Taking new people unproven — carried from an older research method and not yet re-read from a source
Inherited at the v8 migration from the record's evidence class (Verified-official). This claim does not yet say where IT came from; the record does.
Vehicle class read from the company's own page
category-vehicle-cascade (owner ruling 2026-08-25): CATEGORY DEFINITION — reselling what you own is listing and shipping — by definition, no vehicle is required to participate. Encoded at the category level by owner ruling; the record's own page remains the authority for everything else it states.
Vehicle needed read from the company's own page
vehicle-model-phase2 (owner arc 2026-08-25): restates this record's category-definition vehicle encode under the five-state model — the work is remote, listing-and-shipping, or hosting your own asset; no transport is part of doing it (the vehicle_tier claim remains the underlying source)
What it is read from the company's own page
debt-tranche2 (owner arc 2026-08-26): identity restated on their seller pages: buyer-demand marketplace, you source inventory (fetched 2026-08-26)
What workers rate the app reported by someone else — not the company's words
Apple App Store listing for "eBay online shopping & selling" and Google Play listing for "eBay online shopping & selling" — the store is the witness, not the company; one app serves both workers and customers, so the rating blends both; checked 2026-09-02
What you need unproven — carried from an older research method and not yet re-read from a source
