Enter a price in one or more of the price fields. You can create the following auction formats:
- Auction: In the Auction tab, enter a price in only the "Auction start price" field
- Auction+Buy It Now: In the Auction tab, enter a price in both the "Auction start price" and "Buy It Now" fields
- Fixed Price: In the Fixed Price tab, enter a price in the "Buy It Now" field
- Fixed Price+Best Offer: In the Fixed Price tab, enter a price in the “Buy It Now” field and toggle “Best Offer” to ON
Quantity
Specifying a quantity of items is only available for the Fixed Price listing format. To sell more than one item at a time, select the Fixed Price listing format and enter the quantity of items you wish to sell in the Quantity field beneath the Buy It Now price.
Reserve Price
Specifying a reserve price is only applicable to Auction format listings with or without a Buy It Now price. If you do specify a Buy It Now price, the reserve price must be lower than the Buy It Now price. In all cases, the reserve price must be greater than the auction start price. At the end of the auction, if the highest bid is lower than the reserve price, the item will not have been sold.
Best Offer
Depending on the category and your seller account eligibility, you may be able to choose the Best Offer option on a Fixed Price listing. This allows buyers to suggest a price they're willing to pay for the item. If you accept an offer, the listing ends and you sell the item to that buyer. Each Best Offer is only valid for 48 hours.
Duration
Select how long your listing will run. In general, a longer duration results in higher prices or increases the chances of a sale. If you're using the fixed price format, you can also choose a 30-day or Good 'Til Cancelled duration. For a 1-day listing, you need to have a Feedback score of at least 10. If you don't meet this requirement, you won't see the 1-day option when you list an item. If 2 or more hours have passed since you submitted a listing, you won't be able to change the duration of your listing.
Schedule
For an additional fee, you can schedule your listing to start on a day and time of your choice.
