Listing variations of the same item
Hi. I am trying to use the variation listings for the first time. I went through bulk listing and filled out all the requirements and posted. All looked good except that there is no button/tab where a buyer can actually purchase one or more of the items. There is only an "Add to Watchlist" button. What did I do wrong? My research says to select the "Buy it Now" drop down but that is not highlighted for me to select

·1 week agoI think the issue is your listing format. For variation listings, it needs to be Fixed Price, not Auction. Thats probably why the Buy It Now option is greyed out.
Try edit the listing and check:
Turn Auction OFF / choose Fixed Price.
Check every variation has a price.
Make sure each variation has quantity more than 0.
Save and check the live listing again.
If eBay doesnt let you change the format on the existing listing, you may need to end it and create it again as Fixed Price. I got confused with this the first time too tbh 😅

·1 week ago@colleeros_40 Do you have a specific Variation Listing you are talking about that we can confirm? I think what you are talking about is when you are looking at your own listings through your Seller Account, this results in only seeing "Add To Watchlist" because of a recent change by eBay. You won't see the Buy It Now or Add To Cart for your own items when logged in to the same account. Log out and then view your Listings or use a different account to view them. The BIN and Add To Cart are present for Buyers, I can see them.
