Free to read. No paid listings. How this site works
How platforms pay you
Five platforms, three ways to be paid. Who does the work, what it costs you, and when the money arrives.
eBay, Vestiaire and Rebag pages, read Oct 2, 2026; our arithmetic.
| Platform | Model | What it costs you | When you are paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| eBay1 | Marketplace: you list and ship | Final value fee by category and price, plus a per order fee | After the buyer receives it; check eBay's payout terms |
| Vestiaire Collective2 | Marketplace: you list and ship | 12% ($10 minimum, $2,000 cap) plus 3% processing | Check Vestiaire's payout terms |
| Rebag3 | Consignment, trade or buyout | Commission 8% to 35% by its own description; table by price band | 4 to 5 weeks after the sale (consignment) |
| Fashionphile4 | Upfront offer | No commission: the offer is the payout | On receipt and authentication |
| Bob's Watches5 | Guaranteed offer (watches) | No commission: the final offer after inspection | Immediately on approving the final offer |

From each platform's own pages, October 2, 2026. "Check the payout terms" means the page we read did not state the timing.
Marketplaces leave you the most of a sale but the work is yours: photos, description, questions, shipping and returns under your stated policy. eBay's Authenticity Guarantee adds an inspection step for eligible items, at no cost to you; eBay notes some orders may be delayed 7 days or more6.
Consignment hands the work to the platform for a larger cut. Rebag publishes its commission table and its comparison of payout timing and rates against other channels; those comparisons are Rebag's own3.
Outright offers are fastest. Fashionphile pays once it has received and authenticated your item4; Bob's Watches says payment is submitted immediately when you approve its final offer5. You trade some value for speed and certainty.
How these links work: each button opens the merchant's own product page. We are not paid for these links today; we may earn a commission from purchases in the future.
Good for a capped fee on high-priced pieces
Good for choosing between commission, credit and cash
Good for selling it yourself, with inspection for eligible items
Also on eBay's site
We do not earn anything from purchases today. Every product link is a plain link to the merchant's own page, without an affiliate code. We may join merchants' affiliate programs in the future, and this notice will say so before that changes.
Fees, commission rates and payout terms belong to each platform and can change. The platform's own page is the final word on fees, payouts and terms.
LuxeResale Guide compares published fee schedules. We do not authenticate, buy or sell items, and we do not vouch for any listing. Net payout figures are our arithmetic on published rates, not quotes.
