Selling multiple items
In this article


You can sell multiple items in a single 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. When you create a fixed price listing, you specify a Buy It Now price for each item. Buyers can purchase your items immediately without bidding and waiting for an auction to end.

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

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

Here's how it works:

  1. When listing your item, select the Fixed Price tab, enter the Buy It Now price, and then enter the number of items for sale in the Quantity field.

    Note: If you don't see the Fixed Price tab or can't enter a number in the Quantity field, verify that you meet the requirements.

  2. Buyers purchase one or more of your items by clicking the Buy It Now button on your listing. Buyers can keep buying your items until they run out or the listing ends.

Note: The process for listing multiple variations of an item has additional steps. Learn more about listing items with variations.

Requirements

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