What it costs

Listing is free

Making a sale, photographing things, putting a pin on the map and having buyers find you costs nothing, whether or not anything sells.

When something sells online

WhimSale takes 11% plus 30 cents, and only on things bought and paid for through the site. On a $45 chair that is $5.25, and you get $39.75.

Anything sold in cash at your sale is nothing to do with us and costs nothing.

Selling food

Cottage food is free. Michigan requires those sales to be direct between you and the buyer, so we never handle the money and take no percentage of it. We advertise it and hand the buyer to you.
