Hi everyone...After over a year of development and testing with the Community, we officially unveiled the new Sell Your Item form in August.
Over the last couple of months, we have received important input that has led to a number of product changes. You have helped us identify issues with the new form, and we appreciate hearing from you. Based on your feedback, we've made the following enhancements:
- Ability to add your self-hosted Gallery URL easily. Sellers let us know that they need the ability to specify a separate self-hosted picture URL for their Gallery image. Recently, we added this capability to the new SYI form, so now sellers can use either eBay Picture Services images, or those hosted on a 3rd-party website, as their Gallery image.
- Quicker relist process. Members pointed out that it took longer and required more clicks to relist items with the new form. As a result, we've redesigned the relist function so that if you don't need to make any changes to your listing, you can relist it with one click right from the first page of the process.
In addition to these two major areas of improvement, we're working hard to respond to other issues reported by the Community. For example, we've found that some members are seeing errors when they try to copy certain HTML code they used in the old SYI form into the new form.
We do encourage you to try the new SYI form. It's faster and more flexible than the current form, and it contains some valuable features that are not available in the current SYI form. Simply click on the "Start selling with the new version of the Sell Your Item form" link at the beginning of the selling process.
If you've already started seeing the new SYI, and would prefer to use the current version, you can do that, too. Just click the "List using the original Sell Your Item form" link.
Thanks to everyone for your input and support, and on behalf of the entire Selling Tools team, we hope you have a very successful holiday season.
