Best practices for selling your books, music, movies and DVDs, and video games on eBay

Follow these tips to maximize your sales:

  • List multiple-quantity inventory in long-duration, Fixed Price listings and use product details to get 5¢ Insertion Fees and free Subtitle. Your listings will show up in search results and the new product page.

  • Price competitively! Price will be the main factor determining the position of your listing on the product page and in search results.

  • Got more than one of the same item to sell? Add to your Fixed Price listings—don't create new ones. You won't be able to create separate listings for Fixed Price items of the same condition.

  • Use Auction-style for unique or one-of-a-kind items. Auction-style listings get an automatic boost in Best Match search results when they're about to end.

  • Help your items stand out by using Subtitle to provide more information on the condition of your item. Subtitles show up on the new product page and in search results and are free for eBay Fixed Price and Auction-style listings when you list with product details.

  • Store Inventory Format listings continue to be displayed using the current Store Inventory Format expansion box. The expansion box now uses the same criteria as Best Match.
