Seller's Checklist To make listing your item a smooth and easy process, be prepared by going through this checklist: Choose your eChinabid category (or categories). The right category helps interested buyers find your item. Search for items similar to yours and see which categories other sellers have chosen. For an additional fee, you can list your item in a second category to maximize your item's visibility. Tip: Choose the most specific category available. This will help buyers find your item. Plan your item title and description. Give some thought to naming and describing your item. What will buyers most want to know about it? What are its most appealing characteristics? What words might buyers use to search for your item? Prepare your photo(s). Have a good picture of your item in an appropriate digital format. JPEG (.jpg) is recommended. If you host your own photos, have your photos uploaded to your service. Have the item on hand. Keep the item close by in case you think of other things you want to add to your description. Plan your pricing. You may want to do a little research into the selling prices of other items similar to yours. This will help you set your starting price or your Buy It Now price. Also, decide whether you'd like to set a reserve price (a price below which you won't sell your item). Learn more about Reserve Price Auctions . Register for selling-related services.
