Not sure if I posted my listing right

[torchwood_captain_j_harkness]

I'm not sure if I posted my listing right. I'm trying to sell 10 homemade Harry Potter themed wands and  I noticed when I was checking out similar items that this one particalur one had a drop down menu  with the list of the colors of the wands they were selling. Plus it had an option to write how many you wanted in this small box.  And I don't have it for mine.

Homemade Harry Potter Wands

I don't want anyone interested in buying a wand thinking that all 10 are for $8. They are $8 each. 

To me it looks as if I am selling them all together as a set. 

The only option I had was it asking me if it was a bundle and I clicked no, since it's not a bundle. 

Can anyone help me here and tell me if the listing is correct so I don't get buyers thinking that it's all 10 for sale as a set. 

Or did I do this listing correctly and the wands are actually being sold as one each.

Your listing does appear to offer all the wands for one price unless you read the description.  Unfortunately, descriptions do not always appear on cell phones.  I would suggest listing these singly until you become more experienced as a seller.

As an experienced seller, I'd also like to make some suggestions--please believe that I mean these kindly because I do; I was a new seller once, too. 

• You need to make serious improvements on your photographs because pictures make a sale.
• You also need to work on your title because key words make the difference in whether buyers see your item at all. 
• Your postage is excessive--you can surely ship at a lower cost without using a Flat Rate box--just looking at your pictures, I'd estimate $5 in postage rather than $10.55.  You need to know that you will pay Final Value Fees on your postage as well as on the item, so be sure you've got the amount right.

If this was my item, I'd want to price competitively, and I'd be inclined to offer Free Shipping to sweeten the deal.  Now, most buyers do not realize it but "free" isn't free--you build the cost of the shipping into the price of the item.  Instead of selling $8/$10.55Ship, you list for $19/Free Ship. 

Good luck with your sales.  And, really, hurry and change that listing before you sell all your wands at one price!

Thanks. I will change that. 

But is there a way to sell them as one item each and still have it in one listing?

I didn't see any options really on how to do that?

If not I will just post them each as their own listings.

The listings with the drop down menu for qty or colour/size etc are called Multi Variation FP listings.

They're not available in all categories though.

Variation listings take a bit of learning.  I would strongly recommend using single listings in the short term.  

Spend some time making DRAFTS of variation listings and using the preview feature to see how it looks and works.  Remember to delete your drafts when finished so you don't accidentally list something you didn't mean to later.

Also work on improving photos, titles and such.  If you have competition look at what they do and what categories they listing.

there is an option in the listing form to write the quantity of items available.

Did you not see the replies to the identical thread that you posted yesterday?

No, I never got any notifications that was replied to.
I usually get an email when someone replies to me and I didn't get one this time. That's why I started this new post. And I couldn't find my other post either.

How is this not a trademark violation?

If they are different,  just create a listing for each one.

In answer to your question and as others have said, no, you have not posted your listing right, as you cannot use the words "Harry Potter" to advertise your item.
