Selling multiple items in a single listing


You can sell multiple items in a single fixed price listing if you have more than one identical item to sell.

Listing and selling multiple items

You can list multiple identical items in one fixed price listing.

If you sell your items at a fixed price, buyers can purchase one or more items immediately by clicking the Buy It Now button in your listing.

To create your listing and specify how many items you have for sale:
  1. In the Choose how you'd like to sell your item section of the Sell Your Item form, select the Fixed Price tab.

  2. Enter the number of items you want to sell in the Quantity field.

  3. If you can’t enter a number in the Quantity field, verify that you meet the requirements for selling multiple items.

Using fixed price listings

A fixed price listing is the simplest way to sell multiple items. With a fixed price listing, you specify a Buy It Now price for each item. Buyers can purchase your items until your quantity is gone. When selling multiple items at a fixed price, it pays to choose a longer duration, such as 10-day, 30-day, or Good ‘Til Cancelled.

Tip: If you often sell the same items, find out how listing them together at a fixed price can improve your standing in search results.

Requirements

To create a fixed price listing, you need to establish proof of your identity or meet the Feedback and listing requirements outlined in the following table.

Options

Requirements

If you have a PayPal account

  • Minimum Feedback score of 20

  • PayPal accepted as payment method on your listing

  • If you’re selling through a Premium or Anchor Store, you also need to be PayPal Verified

If you don’t have a PayPal account

  • Minimum Feedback score of 20

  • Registered eBay user for at least 14 days

The fine print

  • In a fixed price listing, you need to sell your items for at least $1 each.

Displaying the quantity of multiple items

If you have more than 10 of the same item to sell, you can choose to show the quantity available as “more than 10”, or show the actual number of items available.

To select whether to show the exact number of items:
  1. Go to My eBay.

  2. Click the Account tab, and then click the Site Preferences link in the left navigation.

  3. Under Selling Preferences, click the Show button next to Sell Your Item form and listings.

  4. Click the Edit button next to Show the exact quantity of items in your listing if the quantity exceeds 10.

  5. Select either:

    • Display “More than 10 available” in your listing (if applicable)

    • Display the exact quantity in your listing

  6. Click the Submit button.
