More ebay stupidity?

#1 Post by Otto69 »

I know, I know, you'd think that 'more' stupidity would be impossible. But they've apparently changed their photo requirements for sellers:

http://announcements.ebay.com/2013/05/s ... 2301.l3955

All photos must be at least 500 pixels on the longest side of the picture.

Photos cannot have borders.

Photos cannot have seller-added text or seller-added artwork.

When you list a used item outside of books, movies, music, and video games, you cannot use the eBay catalog stock photo in the primary photo position. You must upload your own photo.

I wonder if the Thai recasters will be held to the new rules. Most of them have added text to the pics. Hmmmm.........................

I thought they were supposed to be making it EASIER for sellers. Makes me nostalgic for the good old days back in the later 90's.

I just got an email from Ebay on an auction that ended nearly a week ago that one of my pictures didn't come up to standard. :roll:
