Step-by-step guide

Written walkthrough

This walkthrough is separate from the video. Follow the steps at your own pace.

Step 1

Choose Single item

Use Single item when the selected photos all describe one item. A manual draft can be saved without using a Credit. Assisted preparation needs at least one useful photo and uses one Credit.

Step 2

Use safe, useful photos

Show the whole item, identifying details a buyer needs, and honest wear or defects. Remove images with private documents, faces without permission, exact addresses, license plates, or unrelated items that could confuse the draft.

Step 3

Review every suggestion

Check the title, category, brand, model, condition, defects, accessories, price, quantity, and tags. Assisted text is a draft, not a guarantee. Answer any follow-up questions or edit the listing when the source photos do not support a claim.

Step 4

Publish and verify

Publishing makes an eligible item available on the storefront according to its current mode. Open the resulting item page and confirm the price, quantity, photos, seller, location area, and checkout availability from the buyer view.
