Resale profit calculator
Work out your real profit on a Vinted, eBay or Depop sale: enter what you paid, what it sold for, the platform fee and the postage you paid. You also get the margin, return on cost and the lowest price you can accept.
Vinted charges private sellers no selling fee at the time of writing (the buyer pays a protection fee), so 0% is right there. For other marketplaces use the fees in your own account; they vary by category and country.
How the profit is worked out
- Profit = sale price − fees − what you paid − postage − other costs.
- Fees = sale price × fee % + fixed fee.
- Break-even price = (cost + postage + other + fixed fee) ÷ (1 − fee %).
- Margin = profit ÷ sale price. Return on cost = profit ÷ what you paid.
Keep every sale in one place
This calculator does one item at a time. Relisto keeps the profit of every item, month and year, counts your sales per platform for the DAC7 limits, and writes the listing from a photo.
Questions
How do I calculate profit on a resale item?
Profit = sale price minus what you paid, platform fees, postage you paid and any other costs. Margin is profit divided by the sale price, and return on cost is profit divided by what you paid.
What is the break-even price?
The lowest sale price at which you get back your cost, postage and other costs after the platform fee. Anything above it is profit.
Does Vinted charge sellers a fee?
For private sellers on Vinted the buyer pays the buyer protection fee and the seller pays no selling fee at the time of writing, so enter 0%. Other marketplaces charge sellers a percentage and sometimes a fixed fee; enter the figures from your own account, because they vary by category and country.
Should I include postage?
Include postage only if you pay it. If the buyer pays postage, enter 0. If you offer free postage, enter what it costs you.
Is this calculator tax advice?
No. It shows profit before any income tax. Tax rules for resellers depend on your country.
