Seller Fee Values
Current assumptions used in calculator fee math
This page lists the live fee constants currently used by The Expected Value calculators. Values are sourced directly from the
shared fee model in scripts/tcgplayer-fees.js, so this table reflects exactly what the calculators use.
Calculator constants version: tcgplayer-fees.js?v=20260914-direct.
Loading this page confirms which constants the calculators use; it is not a marketplace verification timestamp.
Confirm the marketplace's current fee schedule before acting on these estimates.

TCGplayer percentages here model domestic marketplace sales. International orders and Pro website sales have different fees; see the TCGplayer fee schedule. The TCGplayer cap applies separately to commission and Pro fees per item, not to processing fees.
Mana Pool is modeled as a 5% marketplace fee plus 2.9% + $0.30 credit-card processing, with the marketplace portion capped per item. The cap does not limit payment-processing percentages or fixed order fees.
Cardmarket (Fixed 5%) is a simplified percentage-only estimate. It does not model per-item caps, currency-conversion costs, or VAT adjustments; the table shows this calculator assumption.
TCGplayer Direct uses per-card fees: under the June 18, 2026 schedule, cards below $2.50 incur a 50% fee with commission, Pro, Sync, and transaction fees waived. Cards at $2.50 and above incur $1.12 per card plus the applicable percentages in the table. The percentage total alone is not the full Direct fee. Card EV calculators across the site apply this per-card schedule and offer labeled Market or Low fallbacks with the corresponding Marketplace seller-tier fees. Their card EV excludes Marketplace per-order charges, shipping, tax, and provider-specific Sync fees; enter known additional costs in Extra costs. Sift is applied after the card contents are drawn; fees follow the included cards.
Informational only. Actual marketplace fees, taxes, and costs can change and may differ from these assumptions. In EV calculations, pack contents are drawn first and sift thresholds are applied after the draw.
