        Selling with Classified Ads

        When you list an item through an eBay Classified Ad, you state a price, the buyer contacts you, and together you finalise the transaction outside of the eBay platform.

        The Classified Ad format is available for listings in the following categories. 

        • Business, Office & Industrial
        • Holidays & Travel
        • Property
        • Cars, Motorcycles & Vehicles

        The fees for your ad will vary depending on the listing category.

        How to sell with eBay Classified Ads 

        Here's how to create an eBay Classified Ad:

        1. Select Sell at the top of any eBay page.
        2. Enter your item's details.
        3. In Format, select Classified Ad.
        4. Duration will be set to 30 days automatically.

        Rules for listing Classified Ads

        Our rules for listing a Classified Ad on eBay differ from other selling formats on eBay. With a Classified Ad, we'll send you the contact information of any interested buyers.

        You're not then allowed to share that information with third parties or use it for any reason other than to get in touch about the item you're selling – please make sure you're familiar with our User Privacy Notice.

        Sellers who don't take care of buyers' information could have their buying and selling privileges limited, or their eBay account suspended.

        Remember, although Classified Ads are posted on eBay, purchases aren't covered by the eBay Money Back Guarantee. You won't have access to services such as Feedback, and can't cancel the order if a buyer doesn't pay.
