Your perfect listing to sell clothes
Check if you have specified all the required parameters using this checklist.
Item specifics
Item specifics are descriptive keywords that tell a buyer about your item. They may include brand, size, length, width, height, type, color, or style, and vary depending on what you’re selling. Buyers use item specifics to filter their search results, and your item will only appear in those filtered search results if you’ve added the matching item specific. Make your listings easier to find by matching buyers’ most frequently searched terms.
Product identifiers
Product identifiers are unique codes created by the product manufacturer that can be used to identify a specific product. Using a product identifier can save you time when creating listings. When you enter the product identifier, eBay will suggest a match if your product already exists in the eBay catalog. If there’s a match, many of the fields such as photo and title will be pre-populated.
