Be careful because eBay Partner Network rates change frequently, and they don’t always announce it. Last I checked, most categories hover around 1-4%, with electronics on the lower end. The reality is eBay’s rates have dropped significantly over the years. Also watch out for their “quality click pricing” model—it can reduce your earnings based on performance metrics they don’t fully disclose. Don’t build your entire strategy around one platform’s rates.
