Summary: A discussion on eBay, where zaccafratus raises a question regarding the displayed prices. marioelegio’s response does not seem to contain any new information, and it is followed by another reply from zaccafratus that also does not add any substantive details. The specific content of the question or the responses was not provided.

Good morning, I’m a card seller who’s new to the platform. I have a question I can’t figure out the answer to. Basically, I wanted to view the price of an item’s “recent solds,” and over the last two weeks for the same item (sold in the United States) I’m being shown 3 different prices, and I can’t make sense of it anymore. I’m aware that, since it’s an item sold from the United States, there’s VAT and dollar/euro conversion, but I’m attaching below 3 screenshots showing how I’m being shown 3 different prices, and I no longer know which one to refer to.

In the first two screenshots I see the same product with a difference of about 100 euros, while in the third photo I clicked and opened the listing and see that the original price was 609 dollars, which translated into euros becomes about 580 euros, as shown to me in small text below (not including shipping costs). Can someone help me clear this up? Especially the first two screenshots

It was a listing in which the use of the international shipping program was предусмотрено so with ... the payment of customs duties and tariffs at checkout

eBay International Shipping offers the option to pay customs duties and tariffs at checkout. If you pay everything upfront, the total cost won’t change.

No additional customs processing time or extra import fees will be needed upon delivery.

I think the first screenshot, which is the one you see on the sold items summary, refers to a domestic sale to which these charges were not applied. Then when you open the listing, the system identifies you as a resident in the EU and applies the tax.

Thanks Mario for the quick reply, however I still have several doubts, especially about the first two screenshots, which are the same ones I took but on different days and without opening the listing: one day it shows me 476 euros + 34 shipping; another day it shows me 576 euros + 41 shipping.

Also, if the item had been sold domestically (in the United States) shouldn't the buyer have paid the 609 dollars as shown when opening the original listing? I really don't understand where the “476 euro” comes from. In any case, thank you for your reply
