New item specifics requirements start today for eBay.co.uk and eBay.ie
Dear business sellers,
As announced in July, from today (15th October 2019), you’ll be required to complete additional item specifics on your new and revised listings across 4 categories.
Please note: Good ‘til Cancelled listings won’t be blocked on renewal.
These new requirements will help drive visibility and conversion for your business, giving your buyers an improved and more relevant search experience.
The new requirements for Item specifics to help your listings be found are in the below categories:
Home, Furniture & DIY
Clothing, Shoes & Accessories
Jewellery & Watches
Toys & Games
Remember, sellers who complete Item specifics sell better than those who don’t. Furniture listings with size item specific filled in sell 56% better than those without.*
All categories requiring item specifics, including the additional categories above, can be found using the downloadable lists on our dedicated Item specifics Seller Centre page.
