Question about Item Specifics For Spring Seller Updates.

[mozartbach1971]

I remember reading through the Spring Seller Update and it mentioned a lot of changes in various  collectible categories. I remember reading something about item specifics, however I'm not sure if I read anything about mandatory changes.  Does anyone know if they are requiring that you need to fill out certain item specifics in the collectibles category or they will not be able to list? I know when I tried to list something in the stamps category the system would not allow me to list it until I filled in certain item specifics.

You can check the new IS requirements on this page:

https://pages.ebay.com/seller-center/listing-and-marketing/item-specifics.html#2021-requirements

That page also has links to previous IS changes in 2020 and 2019.

I don't think your normal categories have any changes in this round but you should have a look for yourself because I don't use those categories and only skimmed the info.

item specifics ae one issue that  has gone way beyond stupid.    i could fill in every stupid answewr and the next day thee  is always more.  But what kind of bundle is it?  What else can it be used for?  Do you know what that tube of toothpaste is made of?

They want EVERYTHING filled out and the next day they will ask for more.  They (eBay) will delete your answers and then ask for them again.

I didn't see anything on the link for April the 1st when the Seller Updates begin. I thought when I went to the site it mentioned something about item specifics starting when the Update begins.
