In categories with the newer Custom Item Specifics you can create your own item details, or use recommendations based on terms that have been successful for similar items in the past.Your listing's category will offer either eBay-defined or Custom Item Specifics:
On average, adding Item Specifics results in an increase in bids per listing and an increase in sales per listing. Using Item Specifics is free and optional, but highly recommended. For example, if Item Specifics are not used to specify an item's condition (such as New), that item will not be displayed to buyers who narrow their search to show only new items. Item Specifics are displayed within your listing's description, giving buyers information they want in an easy-to-scan format.Īdopting the Item Specifics feature also helps your listing to be found. Item Specifics allow you, the seller, to highlight important details about your item.
