Hi everyone,I wanted to share an idea that I think could genuinely improve multi‑item selling on eBay, and I’d like to hear what other sellers think about it. Right now, buyers can add several items from the same seller to their basket, but they can’t send one combined offer for all those items. They have to send separate offers for each listing, accept/counter each one individually, and then pay for each item separately. This creates friction and often leads to abandoned baskets.Idea: Combined Basket Offer SystemA simple workflow:Buyer adds multiple items from one seller to their basketBuyer sends one offer for the whole basketSeller accepts or counters the totalBuyer pays one combined invoiceSeller ships everything togetherBenefits to BuyersBig savings from combined postageEasier negotiationMore likely to complete multi‑item purchasesBenefits to SellersHigher average order valueLower postage and labourFewer abandoned basketsClearer pricing → fewer disputesBenefits to eBayHigher GMV from larger transactionsMore final value feesMore promoted listing feesBetter buyer/seller satisfactionCompetitive advantage over platforms that already support multi‑item negotiationThis idea uses features eBay already has (offers, baskets, combined postage, counter‑offers, immediate payment) but connects them into one smooth process. It increases revenue without raising fees and helps buyers and sellers at the same time.What do you think? Would this help your business?
