Best way to list several items that are similar like packs of recipes

I listed 10 packs of recipes in separate listings I labeled them Item #1, Item #2 and so on.

I expected them to be listed that way one through Ten in order.

I only see Item#1 and Item #9 and they are on different pages.

What is the best way to list a number of Items that are similar?

Thank you!

list one.

Then use "sell similar".

Change whatever info you need to change for the next listing.

Repeat.

Well, first I am confused. You are showing EXACTLY the same picture in each of the listings. So are each of the packs the same recipes? If so then you should not have 10 auction listings as that violates duplicate listing policies.

 

And you have all 10 auctions running at the same time. So you are only defeating the purpose of getting the best price. If they are different mixes then use different pictures and run them one AFTER the other not all at once.

The recipes are different, taken from the same trunk.

Since I have thousands of them, I thought I would put as many up at one time that I could handle.

Thanks for your help.

You are headed for heartache. 

 

In the first place, people expect to get what is pictured.  The listing title says "300 RECIPES" and there is a picture of a truck which is full of recipes. That is what people will believe they are buying -- a trunk illed with recipes.  Many buyers look only at the photo, especially those using smart-phones to shop.  Most of them are not going to scroll down to read your description.  and, in fact, from the description I'm not even sure if the buyer is getting  300 recipes, or only one. 

 

Second, what you are doing could be seen as a "chance" listing, which is not allowed on eBay.  I say that because in your desription where you say that someone got one of recipes and won a prize with it  but "IF YOU SHOULD BE UNLUCKY AS TO NOT WIN ONE OF THESE PACKS, LOOK FOR OTHERS TO BE LISTED."  [AllCaps yours]

 

So, my best advice is to pull all those listings and atart over again.  In each listing, show and describe ONLY what is for sale.

You could try variations...(if the category allows it)

it's a pretty hard learning curve, but once you get it, it's invaluable.....

 

You could also turn off your caps lock in the description

I agree with the earlier post...I have no idea what I would be buying for 7 bucks....
