Ebay Secrets Blog

I don’t typically write about AB posts regarding changes to the marketplace unless they’re of the high-profile nature. However, I have seen a few folks on Twitter talking about this today and I thought I’d bring it up here on the blog. Essentially, starting next week, whenever you see your own listings, you’ll see them in the new item page.

From the AB Post:

The new eBay item page includes:

* Bigger, better pictures, with photo zoom coming later this summer
* Real-time countdown timer for Auction-style listings
* Key information right upfront
* Cross-merchandising: Sellers’ relevant listings show up on other each other’s item pages. (You can opt out of cross-merchandising with other sellers, but consider the trade-offs carefully—this is a great opportunity to boost exposure.)

You can see the AB post from Renee VonBergen here. Learn more about the New item page here.

Like I said, I’ve seen some “Tweets” out there in Twitter land saying that this is a welcome change. What do you think? Good / bad? Do you care?

On an unrelated note, I must spend a few minutes with Renee soon so I can profile her for a “5 Minutes with…” interview for Ink. She and I worked together years ago (1997) at WebTV. Would love to speak with her soon.. A lot to catch up on after a 12-year break.

Cheers,
RBH
