How to Create a Listing with Variations on eBay

Getting Started

To create a listing, click the “Sell” button at the top of your screen. Then, click on “List an Item” to start creating your listing. If this is your first time, you can read the instructions provided to help you create and start your listing.

Using Keywords

To jumpstart your listing, you can type keywords like brand, model, or other details in the search box above. Choose from the possible matches to help you create your listing. You can also preview, make changes, and then list your item.

Creating a Variety Listing

After entering your keyword, eBay will provide you with some related options. Since you want to create a variety listing, continue without selecting any of the options.

Choosing Item Conditions

Next, could you choose the condition of your items? You can select options like “New with Tags” or “Used” based on the condition of your items.

Filling in Listing Details

Now, you will be taken to the listing page where you can fill in the details of your listing. Start by uploading photos of your item. You can also provide details such as size, color, and materials.

Enabling Variations

To create a variety listing, click on the three dots on the top right of your screen and select “Settings”. Here, you will find an option to turn on variations. Enable this option to list different variations of your items, including different colors and sizes.

Adding Product Details

Once you have enabled variations, you can start filling in the details of your products. Upload the default pictures of your item. You can also edit the category or add a second category if needed.

Selecting Categories

If the suggested categories are unsuitable for your product, you can search for the most relevant category. However, keep in mind that the options may be limited. Choose the category that best fits your product.

Brand Details

If your product does not have a brand, you can label it as “unbranded”. Fill in the details for the size type and size of your product. Make sure to select the appropriate size type before entering the sizing details.

Color Options

For color options, enter the available colors for your product. Separate each color with a comma. If you want to add photos for each color variation, you can do so in the next step.

Adding Photos

To ensure that each variation has the correct photos, click on “Edit Default Photos” and change it to “Color”. Upload the product pictures according to the described color.

Pricing and Quantity

Set the prices and quantity for each variation. Click on the number under the quantity bar and enter the amount of product you have. Specify the price for each variation.

Previewing the Listing

Preview your listing to see how it looks. Customers will be able to choose the color and size of the item before making a purchase.

Creating the Product Description

Use eBay’s AI description feature to create your product description. You can either type your own description or use the AI description tool for assistance.

Listing your Item

Once you have filled in all the necessary details, click on “List It” to list your item. If you want to create additional variation listings, click on “Create Listings” and select “Single Listings”. Make sure not to select multiple listings, as this will not create variations.
