Default eBay auction template

See Jumble Saler Description Templates for information.


'Get description from auction' button to down an existing auction

Designing a template from scratch is hard work.  Where do you start?  Well, if you see any auction or Buy-it-now on eBay with a nice design, then you can download it using the 'Get desc from auction' button and use it as a starting point.  You can then delete the description of the item and replace with a <DESCRIPTION> placeholder for the description of your own items. 

You can also insert <TITLE>, <CONDITIONDESCRIPTION> and other fields into your template which then get 'mail-merged' with your items when you publish to eBay.  See Jumble Saler fields which can be using in our description designer.

Descriptions are in HTML format, which is the language used to create website pages.  You could also find a local website designer to help you create a template.


IMPORTANT - Copyright notice

If there is a copyright notice or symbol on the auction's description you are downloading, then you shouldn't use it.  Also make sure you remove any logos or pictures used, as these may also be copyrighted by their owners.
