Your Description - No links/banners to websites (personal/business) allowed.

TIP
Use descriptive words that clearly tell what you are selling.

Buyers do not search for words like wow and hot, so make good use of your 60 character limit in the title.

* Required

Enter plain text, or use simple HTML to your description to make it more lively.

See some HTML tips here.

You can also use this area to add more photos to your auction. Find out how here.


Step 3. Add A Banner to Your Description - OPTIONAL

You can add your banner to appear in your description, banner sizes are predefined to 480x60. Please make sure your banner does not exceed that size or it will not appear correct.

The Banner URL (website address of image)

The URL the banner links to (website address)
Shoud look like this: http://www.yoursite.com NOT www.yoursite.com

There is a $.50 fee for using this service.
Without adding the banner, you can not link to your website in your listing.

Auctions found with a link, website address or any form of website promotion that do not have the banner placed when listing the item are subject to a $1.00 non-refundable penalty charge.

TIP
Add your banner and link.

Since we do not allow linking to outside websites, for a small fee of $.50, you can add your banner to appear in your description.

Also, be sure to check out our very reasonable Sitewide Banner Advertising.

Your starting bid is the lowest amount you are willing to sell your item (unless you also specify a reserve price) or the FIXED price of your item if it is Dutch (multiple quantity).

Your BuyIt Price is the amount you are willing to sell this item for using our instant purchasing system.

The Bid Increment is the amount you would like your item price to go up with each bid.


Step 5. Add Photos to Your Listing

Images sell items! A photo is worth a thousand words, especially at Ebanned! It's not required that you use a photo, but most items sell better with the use of photos than not.

Enter the web site address for your picture. URL ONLY. This is the photo that will be at the bottom of your listing, under your description.

This line should look something like this: http://www.YOURSERVER.com/YOURPIC.jpg

This is wrong: C://file/myanything/mypic.jpg

Gallery Option? - Places a thumbnail view in the listings to logged in members.
Enter the web site address for your picture. URL ONLY

This line should look something like this: http://www.YOURSERVER.com/YOURPIC.jpg
$.50 fee if used

TIP
ATTN GEOCITIES/YAHOO/PHOTOBUCKET USERS-
You cannot have your images on Geocities/YAHOO or Photobucket, they do not allow hotlinking to Ebanned and at some point, your images will simply disappear. Best to get a paid Photo Host like Photeto.

More Information

You need to have your photo hosted somewhere, an excellent photo host that allows content to Ebanned is Photeto.


Step 6. Additional Listing Information

See the column to the right for an explanation of each line below.

Quantity Available	max 9,999,999
Payment Info

NOTE: For Dutch (multiple quantity) items, you must check the box or your item will not be considered Dutch no matter how much you entered in the Quantity section.

TIP
Automated Relist lets you select how many times you want your item relisted automatically if it receives no bids. We allow relisting 2 times for free.

If the item is Dutch (multiple quantity) check the box, then enter the number of like items you have to list.

Payment Info lets the bidder know what types of payments you accept.

Shipping Cost lets the bidder know who pays the shipping.

Private Auction keeps your bidders identities secret until the end of auction. As a seller, you will have access to bidder information as usual, but people viewing the item will only see Private Auction.


Step 7. Listing Enhancements for More bids

TIP
Front Page Featured lists your item in the most visible place at Ebanned, right on the main entrance page! This is most effective for Dutch (multiple quantity) items.

Category Featured lists your item at the top of every category listing page in the category you choose.

Highlighted Background puts a strip of color of your choice across your line in the listings, while Bold Font Lettering gives your title a bold face. Both of these are cost effective ways to get you noticed.

Thumbnail in listings gives you the chance to really expose yourself using a photo of your choice to be displayed in the listings view. Your photo is automatically sized to 60x60 so make sure you choose an image that will scale well.
