Marketplace Fee
The marketplace fee is a small service fee applied to completed purchases or winning auctions. It allows buyers to purchase collectible toys directly from sellers while supporting a secure, peer-to-peer marketplace experience.
This buyer-supported model keeps selling completely free for sellers, while giving buyers access to competitive pricing, rare and limited-edition collectibles, and a constantly updated selection of in-demand toys.
The marketplace fee is paid by the buyer at checkout via credit card (Stripe) directly to Collectible Toys Trader. This fee is separate from the purchase or winning bid price, which is paid directly to the seller after the marketplace fee is processed.
