Ebay classified ads: place an ad

On Ebay classifieds you can place advertisements (mostly) free of charge. Unlike on the auction portal, goods are offered here at a fixed or negotiable price, similar to the advertising section of a newspaper. The advantage here is that you have pricing in your own hands and are not dependent on other bidders.

Ebay classified ads: Good preparation is the first step to success

If you have an old item that you want to sell on eBay classified ads, it is best to find out in advance about the value of the goods. Watch offers for the same or comparable items on an auction portal. You should also take photos that show the item in good condition.

Now you have to publish all necessary information on Ebay classifieds. To do this, proceed as follows:

1. Visit the following website: //klein Ads.ebay.de/vergleich/p-anzeige-aufhaben.html
2. Here you can classify your goods between different categories, such as: car, pets, real estate. Carry out the categorization conscientiously in order to address potential buyers via the search.
3. Now it comes down to it: on the following page you have to provide information about your product. Ebay classifieds offers a mask tailored to the product type. Here you can, for example, enter the year the car was first registered and the mileage.
4. Since the advertisements are mainly intended for local trade, you have to enter your correct zip code in order to appear in the list.
5. After you have specified your asking price with the fixed price or negotiation basis option, you should definitely upload pictures.
6. Under "Description" you have the opportunity to provide details about your product, such as the condition of use and whether you would also send the item.
7. Finally, you can add extras to your ad (at an additional cost). The "highlight" extra spices up your ad, for example, in color - so that you can differentiate your ad from the other standard ads.

On Ebay classifieds you unfortunately have no buyer protection. So if you want to buy an item, either pick it up on site or process the purchase via PayPal. For more tips on protecting yourself against eBay fraud, click here.
