Fees & payouts

0% at launch — we take nothing.

Commission is charged on the item price only. Never on shipping, and never on sales tax.

After the marketplace opens, new listings pay 10% — still on the item price only, and reducible to as little as 7% with the loyalty discounts below. The rate freezes onto a listing the day it's created and is never raised afterwards, which is also why every listing created before the marketplace opens keeps its 0% for life.

There are no listing fees, no relisting fees, no photo fees, and no monthly fee.

$3.20 a sale, flat. Taking a card costs money — the card networks and Stripe charge a percentage of everything the buyer pays, including the shipping and the sales tax. Rather than pass that through as a percentage you can't work out in advance, ReRack charges one flat $3.20 on the sale and absorbs the rest.

It is the same $3.20 on a $25 ball and a $300 one, so it costs proportionally more on a cheap ball — worth knowing before you list something at $15. It is sized as the exact processing charge on a $100 item price, so on anything dearer than that we are absorbing the rest. We already absorb the processing on the shipping, the sales tax and the buyer's own fee on every order, because none of those three is the seller's money.

Sell a ball for $80: commission is $0, card processing is $3.20, and you receive $76.80. That is the whole deduction — there is no third line.

The listing wizard shows you the figure you'll receive before you publish, and the order page shows it again when the ball sells. If those two ever disagree with this page, this page is wrong — tell us.

The buyer pays shipping. The rate is quoted live from the carrier for the buyer's ZIP code before they pay, so it's the real cost of that parcel to that address, not an average. When no live quote is available a flat $14.99 applies instead.

ReRack buys the label and the seller prints it from the order page. A seller may instead ship on their own account and paste the carrier and tracking number — cheaper sometimes, but it reduces their protection if the parcel is lost or damaged. See Seller Protection.

Buyers pay 4% of the item price. On an $80 ball that is $3.20, shown as its own line before you pay — never folded into the price you were comparing.

It pays for buyer protection: the inspection window, the dispute process, and holding the payment until you have the ball and have had a chance to look at it.

It never changes what the seller receives. Their payout is the item price less their own commission and card processing, whether this fee exists or not. And a full refund returns it — if the sale does not stand, neither does the fee.

These arrive when the marketplace opens and commission switches on. They're worth knowing now for one reason: the tiers count your whole account history, so every ball you sell or buy during the free period already counts toward them.

A listing with complete fit information pays 1% less commission. Fit information is the thing buyers come here for, so ReRack pays for it: if a drilled ball carries its measurements when it sells, 1% comes off the commission on that sale. An undrilled ball — including a fully plugged one — has nothing to record, so it gets this discount automatically.

Sell 3 balls and every later sale pays 1% less commission; sell 10 and it's 2% — permanently. Counted across your account's lifetime, so a tier once reached is never lost. Only sales that stand count: a cancelled or refunded order doesn't. Stacked with the fit-information discount, a committed seller pays 7% instead of 10%.

Buyers earn the same tiers on the service fee: buy 3 balls and every later purchase pays 1% less, buy 10 and it's 2% — permanently. From launch, the reduction is applied and named on the checkout review screen, on the fee line it reduces.

Discounts only ever reduce a fee — none of them can turn a fee negative, and none of them changes a listing created under the early-adopter promise, which already pays no commission at all.

Sales tax is not a fee, and it is not yours to handle. ReRack collects and remits it as the marketplace facilitator, so sellers never collect or remit sales tax on a ReRack sale. Where it applies it is shown as its own line on the buyer's checkout review screen, charged on top of the price — it does not come out of anyone's proceeds.

It applies only where ReRack is registered to collect, which depends on the buyer's delivery address. Many orders carry no tax line.

Your payout transfers to your Stripe account once the buyer's 48-hour inspection window closes with no problem reported. From there it follows Stripe's normal payout schedule to your bank — typically about two business days.

The money sits with ReRack, not with you and not with the buyer, until that window closes. That's the point of it: the buyer knows the ball has to arrive as described before anyone is paid, which is what makes them comfortable buying a used ball from a stranger.

Every amount — item price, shipping, commission, card processing, payout — is computed once, at the moment of purchase, and stored on the order. If we change our fees tomorrow, an order placed today is unaffected. We'll always tell sellers before commission goes up.

Selling proceeds may be taxable income. Stripe issues a 1099-K if you cross the federal thresholds, and some states set lower ones. See Taxes for sellers — and talk to a tax professional about your own situation, not to us.
