Create a great listing

Here’s six ways to set yourself up for success.

Write a standout title

We’ll recommend search terms that buyers often use, so be sure to add these in the title.

Avoid all caps and focus on specific details like brand, model, size, and color.

Take high-quality photos

Snap your items from multiple angles in a well-lit place, and capture any blemishes for transparency.

On the eBay app, you can clean up your images and add a white background.

Pick a purchase format

If you want to sell your item quickly, Buy it Now is probably the best format for you.

Otherwise, if you want to try your luck and shoot for the best possible price, choose Auction.
