From today, sellers in the Fashion category will be able to use Multi Variation Merger to create new multi-variation listings based on their current individual listings.

Multi-variation listings are a key format for Fashion sellers: helping you to reduce costs, save time and boost your sales. By using the new Multi Variation Merger tool, you can keep the Best Match score associated with your most popular individual listing, which will mean increased visibility for your other items that may have performed less strongly in the past. Your new multi-variation listing will also be easier to manage, plus you’ll save money by paying only one insertion fee per Multi-variation listing and not multiple insertion fees for each variation.

Multi Variation Merger helps you merge your individual listings to create a new multi-variation listing quickly and easily using a simple 3-step process.

You can:

1. Select which individual listings to merge.
2. Review and edit your new multi-variation listing.
3. Merge: make your new multi-variation listing available to buyers and end the old individual listings.

Go to My eBay to try Multi Variation Merger.

Find out more about multi-variation listings and how to use Multi Variation Merger. You can also leave us feedback directly from the tool’s page.

Hello,

Just in time for the winter tyre season, a new tyre finder is now available on eBay.co.uk. This new tool makes it easier for buyers to select the right tyres for their vehicles.

Buyers can now enter the width, aspect ratio, diameter, tyre type, manufacturer or speed index and then simply select the right tyres for their vehicle from the 500,000 available on eBay.co.uk.

If you list in the Vehicle Parts & Accessories category, make sure you add item specifics to your tyre listings so your items are displayed in the new finder.

Go to the new eBay.co.uk tyre finder.

	***Original: Certain web browsers are unable to upload images using the Quick Sell / Easy Lister / Simple Lister form***
	17 October, 2012 | 03:26PM BST We're aware of a new issue where sellers using the Quick Sell / Easy Lister / Simple Lister selling forms cannot upload images. It's been reported that members are able to select their image, but the popup window appears to remain stuck with “Uploading photo” status. This is affecting members using Internet Explorer 8, Mozilla Firefox 16 and Google Chrome. The current workaround is for sellers to use the Advanced Sell form instead of the Easy Lister / Quick Sell form. The issue has been identified and we're working on a fix for this and will inform you when it is resolved. We thank you for your patience Regards, The eBay Team

	***Original: Issues with uploading images using the Mozilla Firefox 16 web browser ***
	16 October, 2012 | 12:35PM BST We're aware that members using Mozilla Firefox 16 or higher are having issues uploading images to their new listings. The issue has been identified and we're working on a fix for this and will inform you when it is resolved. In the meantime there are a number of workarounds available: If you are using Firefox 16, switch back to an older version. You can also switch to a different browser like Internet Explorer, Chrome, Opera and Safari (for MAC users). Instead of using the "Sell an Item" option use "Sell Similar" from another listing. If you are using the Basic up-loader switch to the Standard up-loader and vice versa. Regards, The eBay Team

Hello,

eBay is launching the eBay FAST & FREE programme in the UK starting 17th October 2012, having been successful in the US and Australia.

As fast and free delivery is becoming increasingly important to online shoppers, from now onwards it will be easier to identify those listings where a seller offers free postage and an estimated delivery window of 3 working days or less.

The eBay FAST & FREE message will be automatically displayed on the relevant listing whenever the following conditions are met:

1. Both the delivery address and the item are within the UK (with exclusion of the Scilly, Shetland and Hebrides islands).
2. The first postage service offered is free.
3. The estimated delivery date for the free service is 3 working days or less

Last month, we announced that we were refreshing the eBay logo to reflect who we are today. Our updated logo symbolises the new eBay and our commitment to connect people to the things they need and love—anytime, anywhere.

Today, you’ll start to see the new eBay marketplaces logo on our global sites and communications. The full integration of the new logo will happen gradually over the coming months.

In the weeks and months ahead, we’ll introduce site-wide enhancements that deliver a cleaner, more contemporary and consistent experience, starting in the U.S. and then rolling out to our international sites. We recognise that our consumers want more personalised shopping experiences tailored to their unique interests.

We’ll let you know of the major new features are scheduled to roll out on eBay’s UK site. If you’d like to check out a preview of some of the potential features we’ll be launching, you can view them at ebay.com/new.

Thank you for contributing to our global community and for helping us deliver world-class experiences to eBay buyers.

Regards
The eBay team
