Quick answer
How much does Mercari take from sellers?

For current US listings, Mercari's seller fee is 10% of the item price plus buyer-paid shipping. This calculator separates marketplace payout from true reseller profit by also subtracting seller-paid shipping, purchase cost, packaging, sourcing mileage, repairs, authentication, and other costs.

Example
$40 item + $8 buyer shipping
Fee base is $48. Mercari fee is about $4.80. Net payout before your own costs is $43.20.
Profit
Payout is not margin
If that item cost $18 to source and $2 in packaging, profit is closer to $23.20 before any mileage, repairs, refunds, or storage time.

FAQ
Mercari fee questions answered
How much does Mercari take from sellers in 2026?

For current US listings, Mercari's seller fee is 10% of the item price plus buyer-paid shipping. If you sell an item for $40 and the buyer pays $8 shipping, the fee base is $48 and the seller fee is about $4.80.

Does Mercari charge seller fees on shipping?

Yes. Mercari applies the current seller fee to item price plus buyer-paid shipping. Seller-paid shipping is different: if you pay postage yourself, subtract that cost from profit even if it is not a buyer-paid shipping line.

Is Mercari payout the same as reseller profit?

No. Payout is what Mercari releases after marketplace fees. Profit is payout minus purchase cost, seller-paid shipping, packaging, mileage, repairs, authentication, refunds, and any other costs tied to the flip.

What should I track after using this Mercari fee calculator?

Track the item cost, sale price, platform fee, shipping, source, category, date listed, date sold, and final profit. That history shows which sourcing spots and item types actually deserve more capital.
