Slabsta keeps the $10.99 Buyer Protection fee, which funds payment processing, claim review and refunds. Sales tax, if any, is added on top. The seller pays for their own postage out of the shipping amount.
When sellers get paid
Funds are released when the buyer confirms receipt, or 2 days after carrier-confirmed delivery if no claim is open. See Buyer Protection and the Seller Policy.
