Tool 4 · Markdown plan

It’s been sitting. How far can you drop it?

Plan price drops for stale listings: take a set percent off every few weeks, and stop at the lowest price that still makes the profit you won’t go under. Then you know when to bundle, donate or relist instead.

How the plan is worked out

Each step

next price = current price × (1 − drop %), rounded to the cent

So 10% off $40 is $36, then $32.40, then $29.16. Each step’s profit uses the same fees, postage and costs as the Compare tool.

The floor

The floor is the lowest price, to the cent, where you still keep your minimum profit on that platform. The plan never goes below it. If even the first price can’t reach your minimum, it says so.

Common cadences

Sellers often describe 10 to 15% off every 30 days, or one 10% cut at 90 days for listings with no watchers. Price isn’t always the problem, though: a better first photo or title can matter more on a listing nobody is viewing.
