Pricing 3D prints after Etsy and marketplace fees
Short answer: the marketplace takes its fee from your list price, so add it on top of your price, not inside your margin:
list price = cost ÷ (1 − margin) ÷ (1 − fee)
A print that costs €6.39 with a 40% margin sells for €10.65 direct, and €11.84 on a marketplace that takes about 10%.
Why “add 10%” is not enough
The fee is a share of the final price, including the fee itself. Adding 10% to €10.65 gives €11.72; after a 10% fee you keep €10.54 and lose part of your profit. Dividing by 0.90 gives €11.84, and after the fee you keep exactly €10.65.
Worked example
- Cost after failed prints: €6.39
- Keep a 40% margin: €6.39 ÷ 0.60 = €10.65 you need to receive
- Marketplace fee about 10%: €10.65 ÷ 0.90 = €11.84 list price
- You receive €10.65, cost €6.39, profit €4.26
Etsy-style fees combine a transaction fee, payment processing and a listing fee, and they change. Check your shop's fee page and enter the real total percentage. Margin and markup are not the same thing either: see margin vs markup.
