Personalise with eBay

[justbecausesilkflowers]

Has anyone tried to implement this on an existing listing? I have tried and it doesn't seem to work for me. I add the "item specific" of "Personalise" and nothing changes - TIA

@61stephenuk Thank you - I did contact seller support but the person I spoke to didn't understand the question

what exactly do you expect to happen?

item specifics just state what you are offering on your listing

they don't provide an option to personalise anything

[justbecausesilkflowers]

I had an email from eBay saying they offer a new feature - it says We’re improving the experience so that your customers can add their personalisation on the View Item page of your listings in certain categories, which can then be sent to you using the “message to seller” option.

I would rally like to use this, as a lot of my listings can be personalised and I like the idea of a "personalisation box" on my listings

[pixiesen2012]

that's nothing to do with item specifics, was there a link in the message?

[justbecausesilkflowers]

The message states: To set up your personalised listings, you’ll need to take the following action: 1. Add the “Personalise” item specific to your relevant listings 2. Provide personalisation instructions for your customers 3. Turn on the “message to seller” option

[pixiesen2012]

if you tell me on which of your listings have you done all three of those things, I'll take a look and see what a buyer sees

item 284155893446 - I have done 1 but can't see how to do 2 or 3

[pixiesen2012]

sorry, can't see anything different on your listing, you haven't added any instructions on the personalisation offered, maybe you need to add that

[justbecausesilkflowers]

The problem is that I can't see how do do 2 or 3, was just wondering if anyone else had any advice on how to do that.

@justbecausesilkflowers 

ebay have issued a youtube video to show how to do this:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBaIYRyRLiU

[justbecausesilkflowers]

Thank you, that's really helpful - I will have a look

[justbecausesilkflowers]

I have followed the instructions, in fact this is pretty much what I have been doing so unfortunately it doesn't work for me. the new item specific is not popping up. That may be because we previously turned "Personalise" on for your listings (before this change) - I am guessing we need to remove this but I can't see how to remove an "Item specific"
