Listing Checklist
Download Checklist
Use at least eight characters in your password, including numbers. Before posting any car or truck listing on eBay Motors, you’ll be required to supply a minimum list of vehicle descriptors and Terms of Sale information — VIN, make/model/year, pricing, accepted methods of payment, etc.
The more information, insight and photos you can provide on a listing, the more dynamic your vehicle will appear and the more compelling your listing will be.
For cars and trucks, the eBay Motors Sell Your Vehicle Checklist proves, hands down, to be the best way to make sure you include all the mandatory elements. Click on the link above, print it out, then check off each piece of information as you collect it. In fact, having the Checklist with you while you photograph your vehicle, and checking off features as you shoot them, is a wise, time-saving approach.
By using the Sell Your Vehicle Checklist, you’ll leave nothing to chance.
For motorcycles, powersports, boats and other vehicles, the same ingredients contribute to an attractive and effective listing. Lots of photographs of different angles, important components and features, and any relevant information and insight you can provide on the vehicle will make for a great eBay Motors listing.
