Knowing an item whether it is New, Used, Refurbished, Mint condition is critical to buyers. Providing an accurate item condition helps in generating better confidence among buyers & greater satisfaction with the transaction leading to better user experience for both buyers & sellers.
Taking into account responses from buyers & sellers, we now introduce more descriptive & detailed item conditions on eBay.in.
