Trying to sell shoes, mostly brand new in box, and some used. The requirements are getting overwhelming. When you go to buy a pair of shoes in the store, they do not offer nor require all this information that Ebay is stating is necessary. It makes selling so much more difficult and so much more time consuming. When you go to Macy's or somewhere else, you see a pair of shoes, try them on if you can, and you either like and buy them or you don't. There is none of this background information given so why do we as sellers have to spend an inordinate amount of time filling out these insipid "add item specifics." Please have Ebay go back to a simple format. It was so much better. Thank you.
@coleclectics Two things:
1. You can't try on the shoes online as you can in the store. I purchase running shoes on line, for instance, and you should see the long list of specifics the New Balance site, for instance has. It's so I can choose the right pair.
2. Not sure where "insipid" comes from - the required item specifics are so shoppers can find your item among hundreds of thousands. The rest are not mandatory.
I sell shoes here and it takes almost no time at all to list them.
