***Upcoming Changes to Item Pages***

28 March, 2006 | 12:07 PM IST

Hello members,

Over the next few days, we shall be making some changes to the way information is displayed on the 'Item Page' (the page where you find details of a listing). These changes will help our members, especially new members, to more easily find some of the important information on this page.

Here are the details of the changes you'll see in the next few days:

"Meet The Seller” Section - We are renaming the Seller Information area on the item page to "Meet The Seller." Most of the information will remain the same, except for a few visual changes to make it easier to read.

New "Buy Safely" area - Directly below Meet The Seller will be a Buy Safely section. Buyers expect to find trust-related information in one place, so here we'll list the seller's feedback information, any applicable protection programs, and the seller's return policy, if specified.

Shipping Information Higher on the Page - To make it easier to quickly determine the total cost of the item, we're moving the shipping information up on the page, closer to the current item price.

Relocated Links - The Watch This Item and Email to a Friend links will be moved into the center of the "blue" section. They’ll still work exactly as they do today – they are just in a different location.

Show/Hide Additional Listing Details - Additional listing details, such as the Starting Time and Duration, have been moved underneath the Watch This Item and Email to a Friend links. These will be hidden by default, but you can easily choose to display them if you wish. Plus, your choice will be "sticky," meaning that these will display (or stay hidden) as you move from item to item.

To become familiar with the new page layout, we encourage you to check out this screenshot so you can see exactly how it will look.

The eBay Team
