- Dear Dan,
- Thank you for writing eBay in regard to your concern on how to change
- the quantity in your listings and why the eBay system does not allow you
- to change this option. I understand how this can be of concern, let me
- be of help.
- Dan, first of all we don't always recommend that you list the item that
- you are selling in one multi-quantity fixed price listing everytime. in
- certain categories that this is available and if by chance you are
- selling items that fall into these certain categories, we will be
- recommending it. to start off, here is a link that you can use to see
- the available categories for this type of listing format:
- http://pages.ebay.com/sellerinformation/sellingresources/multiplevariationslist.html
- In certain categories that were not mentioned in the link that I gave to
- you, the option for utilizing this format will be grayed out.
- And here is another link that will inform you of the basic features,
- best practices and discussions. Here as follows:
- http://pages.ebay.com/sellerinformation/sellingresources/multiplevariations.html
- The only exception to the "one Fixed Price listing per item" is for
- items that are made to fit specific products, models, or brands, for
- example an auto part, connector cable, or phone charger. For these items
- you can have up to five Fixed Price listings. The listing should clearly
- specify the products or brands the item fits. The brands or products
- specified must be unique to each listing.
- For example, when selling a phone charger that fits only Motorola RAZR,
- BlackBerry Curve, NOKIA 5310, you could create the following three
- separate listings (these are example titles):
- 1. NEW CELL PHONE CAR CHARGER FOR MOTOROLA RAZR V3 V3C
- 2. Car Charger for BlackBerry New Curve Pearl v3 Mini USB
- 3. NEW Cell phone Car Charger for Nokia n900 6205 6350
- This gives a total of three listings for an identical item but they are
- not identical listings because each specifies unique products or models.
- Note you cannot apply this practice to universal items such as AA
- batteries that fit virtually all makes and models.
- We do apologize for the long and tedious email that we have given to you
- as this is the only way that I can explain things more clearly and
- provide you alternatives without compromising your compliance with our
- company guidelines.
- As I was reviewing your account, I would like to commend you for the
- amount of business and transactions that you've done with eBay so far.
- We at the eBay community share your success and passion in providing
- your buyers top of the line service with each and every possible
- transaction. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors here on
- the eBay community.
- I'm glad I was able to assist you by informing you our guidelines when
- listing items in one multi-quantity fixed price listings.
- Thank you for your continued patronage of eBay!
- Sincerely,
- Jeffersohn N.
