Advanced Listing Options

“Advanced” Inspector:

eBay Site

Here you can change the eBay site for individual listings. By default all new listing automatically assume the ebay site specified in the GarageSale Settings > eBay.

Location

Please provide the item location here.
The ZIP code from your listing’s location settings is used for calculating shipping rates when using calculated shipping.

Variations

Variations enable a seller to present various styles (e.g. colors or sizes) of the same item in one and the same listing. For more information please see the chapter Variations.

Sales Tax

If you need to charge a sales tax, you can select a tax rate or enter a tax percentage here.

Lot Size

With eBay’s “Sell a lot” option you can group similar or identical items − for example, a case of batteries, three dresses, a CD collection − that you want to sell together to a single buyer.

Private Auction

When activated, this option will keep bidders and the buyer anonymous in the active “public” listing, while keeping them visible for the seller. There will be a note on these listings stating that they’re private, and that only the seller can see your username.
Keep in mind that eBay may charge you an extra fee for this option!

List as Classified Ad

Classified ads are a great way to list items, services, or properties for sale without creating an auction-style or fixed price listing. This unique listing format does not result in any actual bidding or purchasing on eBay, as it simply places a glorified ad in your desired eBay category.

Tread carefully though as buyers and sellers who transact through a classified ad can’t leave or receive feedback and aren’t covered by eBay Buyer Protection. GarageSale currently supports Classified Ads on eBay.com, eBay.de (“Inseratformat”), eBay.co.uk and eBay.ie.

This is not to be confused with eBay’s separate “Classified Ads” (German: “Kleinanzeigen”) website!

Buyer Requirements

Check here to…

Block buyers from countries to which you don’t ship

Enhancements

Here you can select advanced listing options such as “Gallery Plus” and “International Site Visibility”. Please note that some of these advanced options may result in additional eBay fees. Check the listing fee info in the Launch Control window when starting the listing.

EPS Options

When using eBay’s picture service (EPS) (see GarageSale Settings), you can supercharge your listings even further by selecting “Supersize” (larger images) or “Picture Pack”. Either option will likely incur additional eBay fees.

eBay Scheduler

The eBay Scheduler enables you to have your listings start at a designated time in the future without having to keep GarageSale running. Keep in mind that for this feature to work, you still need to proceed with the normal listing procedure and that eBay will charge you extra for it.

GarageSale’s built-in Listing Scheduler is your FREE alternative!
Please see the chapter Scheduling Listings for all available options.

Charity

eBay allows sellers to list items and collect proceeds (in whole or in part) on behalf of nonprofit organizations. You can opt in eBay’s dedicated charity programm “Giving Works” or have to ensure that your listings comply with eBay’s specific guidelines for charitable solicitations.

Simply choose the desired organization from the menu and specify the donation percentage.

Restarts

GarageSale’s automatic restart feature automatically relists ended items. It works for prepared and active listings alike. See the chapter Automatic Restart Feature for all details.

Item Cost

Here you can provide the actual item cost for your eyes only. This is especially helpful for calculating your profit/losses in the Report Generator section.

Private Comment

This is a place to leave internal private memos that nobody else will see. It won’t be uploaded to eBay.
The “Private Comment” is searchable.
