For eBay sellers Numbers, not a pitch.
eBay takes a cut of the shipping. Brindl does not.
eBay's final value fee is 13.25% plus 40 cents on the whole order, shipping included, in most categories. Brindl's 10% plus $0.30 is on the item alone. Read the full breakdown of eBay's October 1 shipping change.

The honest part
eBay is the better choice when the buyers for your thing are specific and scattered - car parts, collectibles, anything where the person who wants it is hunting for that exact item. Nothing else has that reach, and its auction format finds a real price for something with no obvious market rate. Brindl cannot substitute for that. Switching outright would be bad advice. What makes sense is cross-listing: offer the same item in both places and keep more of it when it sells here. Listing costs nothing, so a listing that does not sell has not cost you anything either.
Ready when you are
Posting takes a couple of minutes. You will need payouts set up before money can reach you, which is a one-time Stripe step.
