How do I offer variations to my listing
eastlaneave
Mentor2 years agoGetting to Variations the first time takes several very specific steps.
Follow step by step and you will get there. Ask questions if you get stuck.
>>Check this first before you read anything further.<<
1) To add different options/sizes/colors to one listing (Variations) you need to use the "New Listing Tool" on the website
-- Neither Mobile App nor the website "Quick Listing Tool" will allow variations
"Quick Listing Tool" has a "gear" ⚙ in the upper right, and the "New Listing Tool" has ︙ 3 dots in the upper right. If you have the Quick Listing Tool format, you'll need the free upgrade.
2) Not all eBay categories support variation listings. (Some categories of Collectibles, Antiques, eBay Motors, and Business & Industrial do not allow variations).
Very important steps [if you don't do these first, steps 6-8 will not work]
3) Using the New Listing Tool, start a brand-new listing (don't try to revise an existing Active listing, don't use a "matching" product, don't use a listing template)
4) Add a Title and a Category
5) Make it a Fixed Price listing (Choose "Buy It Now" in "Format" and Turn OFF "Allow Offers")
Then, you will be able to find variations this way:
6) Click the " ︙ 3 dots" in the upper right-hand corner
7) Select Settings
😎 Turn On the Switch for Variations
(if you skip the earlier steps, this switch will not be here)
9) You will now be able to find the "Edit" Pencil for Variations below "Item Specifics" and above "Description" on the right.
- It must be a NEW listing, not a listing that is already live
- You must use the "New Listing Tool" with ︙ 3 dots in the upper right.
- It must be in a category that supports variations.
- It must be a fixed-price listing.
