I currently have a live auction listing (2 days to go, bids recieved but reserve not met). Based on some questions i've recieved i'd like to amend the current description or add a note. According to eBay's 'Revise' work flow the item description is something that I should be able to amend but when I go to it the item description is greyed out. Any ideas?
You cannot amend the description, all you can do is add a note, but that goes below te description will not be seen by existing bidders and most likely not by any new bidders either.
Bids have been placed on the information already read, any changes could mean that bidders may not have bid in the first place and a winning bidder might have cause for complaint.
You do realise that if the Campervan does not meet the reserve you still pay the Listing Fee and the Reserve Fee. Can make it an expensive Non Sale.
If possible it is best to avoid Reserves, puts buyers off, best to start at a price you are happy to sell at or at least put in the details what the reserve is then bidders do not waste their time.
