eBay’s Item Specifics feature allows sellers to provide more details when they list an item. Buyers can then search against these item details, as well as using the standard Title Search and Description Search functions, so they can find items quickly and easily.
Where Item Specifics have been introduced, sellers see an increase in sales. Buyers can refine their searches quickly, and Item Descriptions are more detailed and clearly structured.
Sellers can choose whether to include Item Specifics in their listing, and buyers can choose whether or not to use them in search.
The new Item Specifics will appear in the following categories:
Consumer Electronics > Satellite/ Cable/ Freeview
Health & Beauty > Fragrances
Health & Beauty > Hair Care > Hair Straighteners
Home & Garden > Major Appliances > Dishwashers
Home & Garden > Major Appliances > Fridges & Freezers
Home & Garden > Major Appliances > Ovens/ Cookers/ Hobs
Photography > Film Cameras
Sporting Goods > Camping > Tents
Sporting Goods > Exercise & Fitness > Cardiovascular Equipment
Toys & Games > Action Figures
