Multiple Listing Charges Avoidance

Listing a single item but offering additional identical items for sale in the item description is not permitted.

Exception: Multiple quantities may be sold in one listing through the following formats:

Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including:

  • Listing cancellation

  • Limits on account privileges

  • Account suspension

  • Forfeit of eBay fees on cancelled listings

  • Loss of PowerSeller status

Additional Information

Listings instructing buyers that they can indicate the number of items they want for the same price is not permitted.

Why does eBay have this policy?

Single listings that offer multiple items to avoid fees may provide a poor buying experience and create an unlevel playing field by putting sellers who pay all their eBay fees at a disadvantage. Furthermore, these listings undermine the trust and legitimacy of eBay’s marketplace.
