Hi Bhushan,

How are you doing? This is Ashish here from Chennai, we had met up.

I have a few questions for you, all related to shops. It would be good if you could answer me out.

1.Could you let me know what is the use of the new form SYI.How can this feature help me?

2.Is that possible that in the item list i can add around 10 or 50 quantities so if i sell one still listing remains without being the listing being deleted.

3.If i make a listing for 30 days, is that possible that i can revise the prices whenever i need.

4.How do i place a counter at my shop homepage to check how many visitors have seen my shop.

Hope you do find time to answer my questions.

Regards,

Ashish Kumar,

Hi, this is Bhuvan Bhushan, I work with the Seller Management team and I take care of Features & Tools in eBay India.

Welcome to the “Using the New Sell Your Item Form” workshop

The new SYI form was created with input from the Community to address newer sellers’ feedback that the form was too difficult and experienced sellers’ feedback that the form was slow and outdated. You can read more of the background history at http://pages.ebay.com/community/chatter/2006April/insideebay.html

We’ve been working hard to incorporate your comments and suggestions, and we have rolled out numerous improvements to the new SYI over the last few weeks. We are very grateful for the positive and constructive feedback we’ve received from you so far.

Regards
Bhuvan

Step 2: Type in something that could sell:



After you select your category, and click “Save & Continue,” you may see a suggestion to add a second category, or search for Pre-Filled Item information

Step 3: From the Create Your Listing page, you will notice that we’ve re-ordered and re-configured some of the fields for better usability:

Additionally, we’re stripped off a lot of the text from the form itself.
