Is there a way anymore to change how your product is shown listed such as how many you’ve sold

I remember sometime ago there were options to customize your listing by showing how many of a certain product you’ve sold or opting out of that and showin/telling  other attributes. Is that still possible? For instance if you had a new product to sell but didn’t want “0 sold” showing, which might deter buyers from buying it. Thx

It's a quantity listing, that might say, for instance, 10 available.  It won't say zero sold, it just won't say any sold if you haven't sold any.  So it would just say 10 available.  

 

You don't have to have ten as quantity.  You choose the quantity.

Hm, I'm not sure what you are referring to. I don't recall anything like that.

 

But if you find a way how to manually put a specific number under your "items sold", let me know wink

If you did have ten listed as the quantity, and two sold, it would then show that as 8 available, two sold, spelled out like that.

 

This is done automatically by the system in response to the item selling.

 

Just an example.

Oh, are you perhaps talking about the area I circled in red here?

I remember awhile back ebay saying something like you can choose which three things you want to highlight on there for buyers to see or something. I never messed with it. So whatever it shows for my listings is default. But I do notice they all don't show the same 3 categories though. And also I'm not sure if the categories change thru time. I assume they would. For instance if I changed my handling time to 10 days and put free shipping... that category on the right side won't show delivery time but probably "free shipping"

@herpestreatment 

You're talking about multi-variation listings. There is no way to turn that off.

The only somewhat related setting you can change is under site preferences "Show the exact quantity of items in your listing, if the quantity exceeds 10." You can set that to yes or no - but it only relates to amount available, not amount left.

Good night and good luck

Where? I thought that display was random. I would much rather always have my amount available show as "more than 10" instead of the actual quantity. Please let me know, thanks.

So is there no way to eliminate how many you’ve sold, or zero sold,  and only showing how many are available?

That is the only setting option available in site settings, and I don't think there are any "special" store options that operate on listing page display. Gigantic sellers with special deals with eBay are able to do other things with the appearance of their listings, and might have some control over that, but not you or I.
