Channel intelligence & economics

v2.0 uses transparent planning assumptions. Fees and fulfilment are estimates unless you provide channel-specific figures. No external listing is published.

Channel	Assessment	Planning role	Target	Est. fee	Fulfilment	Acq.-side contribution	Margin	Why
Depop REVIEW_REQUIRED	NOT_SUITABLE PENDING_FULFILMENT	NOT_SELECTED	£279.00	£27.90	TBD	£158.44	56.8%	Current item category is not a natural fashion/lifestyle fit for this channel. Buyer fulfilment is still TBD, so this is an acquisition-side estimate only.
Facebook Marketplace MANUAL	READY ESTIMATED	SECONDARY_CANDIDATE	£279.00	£0.00	£0.00	£186.34	66.8%	Suitable for manual/local listing workflow; local collection can reduce fulfilment cost.
Gumtree MANUAL	READY ESTIMATED	ALTERNATIVE	£279.00	£0.00	£0.00	£186.34	66.8%	Suitable for manual/local listing workflow; local collection can reduce fulfilment cost.
MetalFox Direct FUTURE	REVIEW PENDING_FULFILMENT	ALTERNATIVE	£279.00	£8.37	TBD	£177.97	63.8%	Future owned storefront; direct-channel economics can be configured once checkout is implemented. Buyer fulfilment is still TBD, so this is an acquisition-side estimate only.
TikTok Shop REVIEW_REQUIRED	RESTRICTED PENDING_FULFILMENT	NOT_SELECTED	£279.00	£16.74	TBD	£169.60	60.8%	Used/second-hand item: category and seller eligibility must be verified before listing. Buyer fulfilment is still TBD, so this is an acquisition-side estimate only.
Vinted REVIEW_REQUIRED	REVIEW PENDING_FULFILMENT	ALTERNATIVE	£279.00	£0.00	TBD	£186.34	66.8%	This category may not be a natural fit; verify current platform category rules. Buyer fulfilment is still TBD, so this is an acquisition-side estimate only.
eBay API_READY	READY PENDING_FULFILMENT	PRIMARY_CANDIDATE	£279.00	£27.90	TBD	£158.44	56.8%	Market evidence exists and the official eBay adapter is available. Publishing remains human-controlled. Buyer fulfilment is still TBD, so this is an acquisition-side estimate only.

Planning role is a candidate ordering based on item fit and estimated economics; you remain in control of the final channel.
