eBay Category Changes: Business & Industrial

April 2013

Please check the table below to see if the categories you sell in are changing. If we are making a change to your category, please make sure your current listings are updated with all relevant item specifics. Occasionally we ask you adopt a value in a seller tag to help us facilitate moving your item to the correct surviving or newly created category. We offer additional item specifics recommendations for optimal search visibility as well. Fees and item specifics (including Condition) may be different in your listing's new category. After the changes are live, please review your listings again.
