Bundled Listing Creation

Since the old thread was closed and eBay recently updated the software, Can you please provide UPDATED instructions for creating Bundles?

Re: Bundled Listing Creation

I'm not sure what a "bundle" is.  Would you mind explaining it a bit.  It is likely I know it as something else.

Re: Bundled Listing Creation

Not the OP but I had the same question. For example, I plan on selling camera gear. The camera body, lens, and other accessories. Can you list things separately and also offer a bundle? Like the camera body and 2 lens. Or camera body and extra batteries.

NO.

 

What do you think would happen if you sold the listing that had the camera body in it AND you sold the listing you are calling a Bundle that had the Camera body and some other stuff in it?  Unless you have two camera bodies, you are going to have to cancel one of those sales.  Now if you have the inventory to cover all the listings your list, you will be fine.

Re: Bundled Listing Creation

EBay doesn’t offer bundling like other platforms do.

 

You can, however, without mentioning the specific items, say in your description “see my other listings for accessories made for this item”.

Re: Bundled Listing Creation

Do you mean the option of ‘selling as a lot’? If so, on the listing form click on edit in the pricing area snd then click on quantity. You will see the sell as a lot box there.

 

I’ve never really understood what checking off that box did as compared to putting everything together one one listing as one purchase.

Re: Bundled Listing Creation

A "bundle" according to ebay is a way to list 'related' items into a bundle.

 

Unfortunately some buyers seem to think a 'bundle' is a bunch of the SAME items at a lower price.

So because you don't like the site, you are of the opinion that no one else should be able to use the site whether for buying or selling???  That is a bit extreme.  Why would you have the right to make that decision for millions of other people?

 

I get it that you are upset.  Maybe with cause, maybe not.  Clearly from what is currently listed on the site sellers are not having the issues you are in posting this type of product for sale.  If you want help to better understand the listing form, just ask.
