Get your eBay invoice in a new summary format
Starting this month, you can choose to get your eBay invoice in a new easy-to-read summary format or in the current detailed format.

The new summary invoice gives you an at-a-glance look at your billing activity instead of detailing individual transactions. This format includes total amounts for each type of discount, credit or fee.

Plus, you can now have your billing-related emails sent to a separate email address.

It's easy to get started with these new options. Just go to My eBay to set your preferences and select the invoice format that’s right for you.

Dutch Auction format discontinued
In mid May, we will discontinue Dutch Auctions, a little-used listing format in which sellers offer multiple-quantity items for sale in one Auction-style listing. This format – often confusing to both buyers and sellers – comprises only a small fraction of all Auction-style listings on eBay.

If you now list with the Dutch Auction format, you’ll have until mid May to convert those listings to another format, such as single-item Auction-style or multi-quantity Fixed Price. Dutch Auction listings that are live when the format is discontinued will be allowed to run to their conclusion, and Good ‘Til Cancelled Dutch Auctions will reset to a quantity of one when relisted.

Although we are retiring this one particular auction format, I want to emphasize that eBay remains committed to Auction-style listings. We value the format, and will continue to support other forms of Auction-style listings going forward.

Sincerely,

Dinesh Lathi
Vice President, Seller Experience
