Step down price every 10-days - WHERE?

[no_zero369]

Saw something the other day that you can select to have the price of an item step down by a % every 10-days or so until it reaches a base or the item sells.

I am using the long listing form on a computer - where do I find this option?

I don’t know where on laptop, but on iPhone it comes up when listing a new item. It’s called easy pricing.

Thank you for getting me the right term to use!  Much appreciated.  Can't get anywhere speaking the wrong terminology!

Forgive me, more suggestions for improvements.....

I'd like to clear out some inventory, and saw that easy pricing option somewhere the other day, so thought I might put it to good use, rather than donating items. 

First, there is nothing on the eBay help pages.  I tried searching with several terms, even used "easy pricing".  No joy.

Next, I went in to Seller Hub to revise some listings and could not find this easy pricing feature.  I saw it the other day - either in reading one of the Seller Updates or when I created a new listing.  But not found when editing a listing.

So I called CS and found a VERY helpful rep who spent A LOT of time researching the topic.  First issue is that the info she got when she looked into easy pricing was that it was only available for auctions!  Now that makes zero sense as who would want to have an auction price drop automatically every 10-days?  So there is apparently a fix needed in the info available to CS.

Next,  would it make sense to have easy pricing accessible or available on the bulk revision tool in Seller Hub?

Then my memory is a bit fuzzy on the topic, but maybe I saw something to the effect that one had to be opted into the Seller hub?  So I mentioned that to CS and she spent some time on test accounts doing some research.  The conclusion - Being opted into Seller Hub on a computer prevented access to the easy pricing.  This was not true (easy pricing was available) for those NOT opted into Seller Hub.  Using the App apparently made this a non-issue, easy pricing was available for BOTH Seller Hub subscribers and non subscribers.

So am I out of luck being a dinosaur on a computer opted in to Seller's Hub or is there a work around? (or something else I need to know?)  ....er, short of buying a tablet & using the app.....

I found this on the m2m board. ^^^

Thanks for that!  Interesting!   

So I have to down grade to that Quick listing tool in order to get this feature?  I thought Seller Hub was the Gold Standard?

The feature is intended for casual sellers, not business sellers- that's why it's available in the app and the quick tool, not the advanced/business tool.

Hi everyone, I have an update to provide on this topic and have worked up a little FAQ below:

Is this feature only available to certain sellers?

Easy Pricing is available to sellers in the US on the .com site who listed the item with our Quick Listing Tool (generally new or occasional sellers and those who listed with the mobile app).

What listing format is eligible for this feature?

Easy Pricing can be used with both Auction and BIN listings.

Can this feature be applied via the bulk edit process?

No, this feature is managed at the individual listing level.

Where can I find more information about Easy Pricing?

Information is available to sellers directly in the listing flow (please see screen shots below). However, there is not a help page regarding this topic.

I will be working with our content teams on any necessary changes to our site resources for this feature. Don't hesitate to let me know if there is anything else that needs to be clarified
