You can revise your listings from Selling Activity in My eBay or your Active listings in Seller Hub. You can also revise your listings in bulk using one of our bulk listing tools or within Seller Hub.

How to bulk edit in Seller Hub:

  1. Check the pre-filtered list of your items.

  2. Go to Seller Hub and sign in to your account.

  3. In the Listings tab, use the filters to narrow down your active listings by category: Footwear, Handbags, Watches, Jewelry.

  4. After filtering, select the listings you want to update and click the “Edit” button.

  5. Make bulk edits in the "Revise Listings" page.

  6. If you have a lot of edits to make, you may find it easier to reorder the columns so the required fields are on the same screen without scrolling. In the editing interface, select "Customize Columns" to reorder, add, or remove columns as needed.Once the "Condition" column is visible, choose the column header to sort your listings by item condition (e.g., New, Pre-Owned, etc).

Selecting the correct item condition is your responsibility and crucial for your listings’ success. If the item condition is inaccurate, your listings might not appear in relevant search results, and you could experience increased returns or negative feedback from buyers, which can impact your seller standards.

In this case, please work with your buyer to resolve the issue and avoid a ‘case closed without seller resolution.’

If a buyer requests a return because the item condition wasn’t as expected, we will be offering some temporary protections for ‘item not as described’ return requests.

For sellers whose ‘item not as described’ rates in our service metrics policy are more impacted by the change, we will offer temporary protections to sellers in ‘Very High’. Please continue to handle any returns and resolve any open claims to avoid a ‘case closed without seller resolution.’
