You can save the settings as a Policy to apply the same configurations to the different M2E Pro Listings or override the Listing settings for individual Items. For more details, please read this article.

Condition

  • Condition - allows you to specify which condition has the Item you are going to sell on eBay. Let your Buyers know exactly what condition has an Item they are going to purchase.

You can select the Item Condition from the list of predefined values or use a Magento Attribute. If you set a condition via Magento Attribute, make sure it contains an appropriate ID.

The Item Condition may be displayed differently on eBay. For example, the condition 'New' for clothing categories appears as 'New: With Tags', 'New Other' as 'New: Without Tags', etc.

  • Seller Notes - if the Item is not new, you can provide additional details about the Item's Condition, such as whether it has defects, missing parts, scratches, or other wear and tear. You have up to 1000 characters.

Images

  • Main Image - the image your potential Buyers will see in the top left of your eBay Item and next to the Items' title in the Search results.

  • Default Image URL - if Magento Product does not have the Main Image, this image will be shown instead. You should use only absolute URL in this option e.g. http://mymagentostore.com/images/defaultimage.jpg

  • Super Size - allows you to provide larger images (up to 800w x 800h pixels - 800 pixels on the longest side).

  • Gallery Images - adds small thumbnails that appear under the Base Image. You can add up to 11 additional photos to each Item on eBay.

  • Change Images for Attributes (applied only to Configurable Products) – allows selecting Magento attribute by which the Multi-Variational Product images will be switching on eBay.

The list of available attributes depends on the Variational Attributes you use for the Configurable Products.

Images for each Configurable Product are switching only by one variational attribute. If your Product varies by two or more attributes, M2E Pro will take into account the first attribute selected from the list.

  • Variation Attribute Images (applied only to Configurable and Grouped Products) - allows adding up to 12 images for each Product variation.

Watermark

You can add a watermark to your images.

The watermark option is only available for images hosted on Magento.

  • Use Watermark – enable/disable the use of a watermark.

  • Upload – choose and upload a file with a watermark image.

  • Transparency – enable to regulate the transparency level of a watermark.

  • Opacity – set the relevant opacity level from 10% to 90% (where 10% is highly transparent, and 90% is not transparent).

  • Scale Image – choose whether to scale a watermark image in width or full image.

  • Position – select a watermark’s position on the image.

Details

  • Title - allows specifying the title which should be displayed for the Product. You can use Magento Product Name for it or create a Custom Title.

  • Subtitle - allows you to add additional information that won't fit in the Title.

eBay charges a fee for using this option. Find out more about Insertion Fees.

  • Cut Long Titles – automatically shortens Items' Titles to 80 characters and Subtitles to 55 characters according to eBay limitation.

Description

You can select to show Product Description or Product Short Description value as an eBay Item Description. However, if you would like to customize the descriptive information for the Items, you can use a Custom Value with the insertion of the Magento Attributes, Images tags, or HTML code you created.

eBay Catalog Identifiers

In this section, you can specify the GTIN, ePID, Brand, and MPN values for your SimpleConfigurable, and Grouped Products

  • UPC – a unique 12 numeric identifier for products in Music (e.g., CDs), DVDs & Movies, and Video Games categories (or domains).

  • EAN – European Article Number, now called International Article Number. Consists of 8 or 13 digits.

  • ISBN (International Standard Book Number) – a unique book identifier consisting of 10 or 13 digits.

  • ePID (Product Reference ID) – a unique Item identifier used in eBay catalog.

  • Brand - sets the Magento Attribute that contains Brand of the Product.

  • MPN - is an identifier of a particular part design used in a particular industry.

eBay requires providing Product Identifiers for Simple and Variational Products in certain categories. If that is the case, and your products do not have UPC/EAN/ISBN/MPN code or any Brand data, provide it as "Does Not Apply"/"Unbranded" by choosing a corresponding option from the drop-down menu.

You may use the same Description Policy for Products with and without identifier/brand data. In this case, make sure that the selected Magento Attribute contains "Does Not Apply"/"Unbranded" as a value for your "unidentified" products.

The logic of submitting eBay Catalog Identifier:

- the Brand value is taken from Magento Parent Product and applied to the whole Item including its variations.

- GTIN and MPN values for each variation of your Configurable and Grouped Products can be provided in two ways. If they are set in Description Policy, the relevant values will be taken from Magento Child Products. eBay Catalog Identifiers provided for Configurable and Grouped Products via Manage Variation pop-up will have a priority over the settings made in Description Policy.

-  eBay Catalog Identifiers for each variation of your BundleDownloadable and Simple with Custom Options Products can be provided only via Manage Variation pop-up. You will find Manage Variations link in the eBay View Mode of M2E Pro Listing next to a Multi-Variation Product. 

- 'Does not apply' and 'Unbranded' values can be set for all Variational Products only via Description Policy.

After at least one eBay Catalog Identifier is specified (except 'None', 'Does Not Apply', 'Unbranded' values), two more options become available:

  • Use eBay Catalog Item Data - specify whether you want your product data to include prefilled Catalog item data from eBay. If the field is set to No, your product data sent to eBay will not interfere with eBay Catalog item data.

  • Use Image From eBay Catalog -  enable to include the stock photos from eBay catalog to your Item description.

Some eBay catalog identifiers may not be available for eBay Sandbox environment.
