Icon Glossary for My eBay

My eBay includes many icons for helping you quickly view the status of listings, transactions, messages, and Feedback.
Tip: If an icon has a bubble around it , you can click the icon to perform the action.

Note: In some cases, an icon has both a blue state and a grey state . The blue state means the action has been performed; the grey state means the action has not yet been performed. In some cases the icon may change from grey to gold to indicate the action has been completed.
