Which marketplace has the lowest seller fees?

Cross-listing resellers quick answer.

Compare Etsy, eBay, Mercari, Poshmark, Depop, and Facebook Marketplace fee assumptions for the same item.

Short answer

The quick math

There is no universal lowest-fee marketplace because shipping, category, buyer-paid tax, boost fees, item price, and pickup versus shipping all change the math. Use one item price and cost basis across every platform, then compare take-home rather than headline percent.

Assumptions used

Same item price across platforms
Same item cost basis
Buyer-paid shipping entered consistently
Optional ads or boosts turned on only when they apply
Platform schedules vary by category, country, and account status
