Vinted vs eBay Fees: Which Model to Buy (2026)
Vinted vs eBay fees (clothing resale)
A channel-fee comparison after a demand check. Resale IQ publishes brand and category watched-departure counts from the public EU5 Vinted snapshot. Per-model buy-below stays on the paid checker. We do not scrape eBay sold comps.
Vinted vs eBay fees is a channel tax after you already know which clothing model to buy. Across 5,564,932 Vinted listings we track in ES, FR, DE, IT and PT, the week to 18 September 2026 showed Balenciaga leaving the shelf 261 times at €140 average — sneakers 76 at €152. Fred Perry moved 258 times at €17. Patagonia 234 at €38. Stone Island 197 at €71 — hoodies 108 at €55. Nike 74 at €72. New Balance 71 at €75. Adidas 39 at €54. eBay takes a seller cut and slower comps. Vinted is volume. Buy the model that still leaves the shelf on Vinted at a price that covers both fee stacks, then list eBay only if the same piece is scarce. Run the exact model on /tools before you spend stock money. This page does not publish a per-model buy-below. We count watched departures, not confirmed cash sales.
Demand first, then the fee stack
Public snapshot 18 September 2026 22:43 UTC. Listings tracked: 5,564,932. Counting method: watched transitions from active to gone in the trailing 7 days. Treat the weekly figure as a lower bound. Snapshot last_calculated is that stamp; ingest has been thin, so treat direction not a 24h tick.
Balenciaga 261 departures, €140 average. Fred Perry 258, €17. Patagonia 234, €38. Stone Island 197, €71. Gucci 105, €249. Nike 74, €72. The North Face 73, €38. New Balance 71, €75. Supreme 54, €80. Adidas 39, €54. High volume at a modest average (Fred Perry shirts 121 at €14) turns on Vinted. Thin, expensive names (Gucci bags 39 at €392) are the only ones worth an eBay listing test after fees.

Fees do not invent demand
Vinted buyer protection comes off the buyer. eBay final-value plus extras come off you. Neither fee table tells you whether Fred Perry shirts (121 watched at €14) or Gucci bags (39 at €392) will leave the shelf this week.
Keep volume names on Vinted. Put a unit on eBay only after the Vinted sample is thin and the ask still covers the extra cut. We do not publish eBay sold comps. Brand totals are not a model verdict.
Paste the model into /tools
Suppliers are already yours. Check brand plus model. Adidas 39 vs Balenciaga 261 this week is a volume gap, not a permission slip. If /tools has no row, do not add another unit.
Weekly brand table stays on market data. Item check is the demand checker at Starter €19.
