Buying Digital Items

A digital item is a computer file or special information that you can access online or have delivered electronically. For example, you might buy an MP3 file of a song (that the seller is legally authorized to sell) and download it to your computer. Or, you might buy an original dessert recipe and receive it from the seller in an email.

All digital items on eBay are listed in the Classified Ads format in the Everything Else -> Information Products category.

The Classified Ad format does not enable buyers and sellers to transact online through eBay, and eBay Feedback is not available for this type of transaction.  To express your interest as a buyer, you can email the seller from the item page. You may also be able to call the seller, if the phone number is available on the item page.
