Commission and payouts

We want the payout structure to be clear. Your share is based on the final sale tier and applied to the net proceeds after marketplace fees and approved direct selling costs.

Final Sale Price	Seller Share	The Recycle Room Share
$75 to $149.99	40%	60%
$150 to $499.99	50%	50%
$500 to $999.99	60%	40%
$1000+	70%	30%

How payout works in plain English

Net proceeds means the final sale price minus marketplace fees and approved direct selling costs.

Your payout is your percentage tier multiplied by those net proceeds.

Approved direct selling costs can include things like shipping materials, paid promotion, or authentication expenses when applicable.

Important notes

Not every submission is accepted
Payout happens after the sale is completed and funds clear
Timeline varies depending on category, condition, price, and demand
Instant buyout terms are separate when offered

What sellers should take away from this

This service is designed for people who would rather keep a portion of the sale and avoid the hassle than manage the full resale process themselves. If that sounds like a good tradeoff, the next step is getting an estimate for your item.
