Size Standardisation for Apparel & Footwear is now live Our new standardised sizing for Apparel & Footwear is now live in Australia, helping buyers find the right items more easily when they search and filter by size. Previously, the same size could be entered in different ways, such as “Medium”, “M” or “Size M”. Standardising these values helps your listings match the size filters buyers use. What this means for your listings We’ve automatically updated listings where there was a clear size match, such as “Medium” to “M”. Listings with a missing, unclear or unsupported size value may now be placed On Hold until the size is updated. If this happens, it only affects the listing and doesn’t mean there’s an issue with your account. What you need to do Review your active listings and update any listings with a missing or unsupported size. Select the exact brand or manufacturer size when it’s available Choose the closest suitable standardised size if your exact size isn’t available Add the exact brand size to your listing title and description when you’ve selected the closest match For example, if you’re listing a Ted Baker Size 3 and that size isn’t available, select the closest suitable standardised size and clearly include “Ted Baker Size 3” in the title and description. You can also add measurements to help buyers understand the fit. This helps your listing appear in the right size filters while giving buyers clear information about the item’s exact size. Can’t find an exact size? Some brand-specific, niche or infrequently used sizes may not have an exact supported equivalent. Choose the supported size that best represents your item, then add the original or brand-specific size, fit notes and measurements in your title, description or optional item specifics . For example, a brand may label an item “One Size” , even though it fits more like an XS/S. Choose the supported size that best represents the item, then add “Tagged One Size; fits like XS/S” in your title or description. What if my listing has more than one size? For listings with multiple size variations, use the appropriate standardised size for each variation. You can include additional sizing information elsewhere in the listing where needed. For existing Apparel and Footwear listings covered by this update, eBay checks the required Size field. If that field contains a supported size, information in additional fields such as EU Size or UK Size won’t affect the size check or cause your listing to be hidden for this reason. How do I know which listings are affected? You’ll be notified by email if a listing is hidden from buyers. You can also visit the Issue Resolution Centre in Seller Hub to view any outstanding issues, see which listings are affected and follow the steps to resolve them. Good ’Til Cancelled listings remain hidden from search until you select a supported size. How should I list different types of Fashion items? Choose the supported size that best represents your item, then add any additional fit, label-size, regional-size or measurement details buyers may need. Shirts and tops: Select the closest supported size and note if the item runs large, has a slim fit or is oversized. Jeans and pants: Use the supported waist size where available and add the inseam measurement. Dresses: Choose the closest supported dress size and add bust, waist and length measurements where fit may vary. Jackets and coats: Select the closest supported size and describe the fit, such as tailored, relaxed or oversized. Shoes: Select the appropriate supported regional size, such as US, UK or EU. Add the size shown on the shoe where helpful. Bras: Use the supported band-and-cup size where available. Add the label or brand-specific size when needed. Children’s clothing: Select the closest supported age or size and add age, height or weight guidance where relevant. Will my original or tagged size still matter? Yes. The standardised size helps buyers find and compare your item using eBay’s shopping filters. You can still include the original, tagged or manufacturer-specific size elsewhere in your listing where it provides useful additional context. Need more help? Visit our Size Standardisation Help Page for more information, listing advice and answers to common questions.

Introducing Extended Bidding: helping auctions reach their full potential From mid-August, we’re rolling out Extended Bidding on all auction items listed in Australia to help create fairer auctions and better outcomes for buyers and sellers. Extended bidding keeps the final moments of an auction open while bidding is active, creating a clear and confident close for both buyers and sellers. What is Extended Bidding? If someone places a bid in the final minute of an auction, we'll automatically extend the auction by a short period. This gives other interested buyers time to respond, instead of relying on who can place the fastest last-second bid. The result is a fairer auction where the winning bid better reflects what an item is worth. How It Works When a bid is placed during the final minute of an auction, the remaining time will reset to 60 seconds until all bidding stops. The auction continues until no more bids are placed during the final minute, giving everyone who's actively bidding the opportunity to respond. Why are we making this change? We are creating a level playing field that gives committed buyers a fair chance to place their best bid. Keep competition alive: Auctions end based on bidding activity, not a rigid clock, so competition can finish naturally. Stay in the action: When bidding heats up, buyers can respond instead of being outbid at the last second. Confidence at the close: The final moments of an auction are clear, visible, and decisive, so buyers and sellers understand exactly what’s happening as the auction ends. What this means for buyers Extended Bidding gives you more time to place your best bid when an Australian auction is about to end.

Introducing Extended Bidding: helping auctions reach their full potential
From mid-August, we’re rolling out Extended Bidding on all auction items listed in Australia to help create fairer auctions and better outcomes for buyers and sellers. Extended bidding keeps the final moments of an auction open while bidding is active, creating a clear and confident close for both buyers and sellers. What is Extended Bidding? If someone places a bid in the final minute of an auction, we'll automatically extend the auction by a short period. This gives other interested buyers time to respond, instead of relying on who can place the fastest last-second bid. The result is a fairer auction where the winning bid better reflects what an item is worth. How It Works When a bid is placed during the final minute of an auction, the remaining time will reset to 60 seconds until all bidding stops. The auction continues until no more bids are placed during the final minute, giving everyone who's actively bidding the opportunity to respond. Why are we making this change? We are creating a level playing field that gives committed buyers a fair chance to place their best bid. Keep competition alive: Auctions end based on bidding activity, not a rigid clock, so competition can finish naturally. Stay in the action: When bidding heats up, buyers can respond instead of being outbid at the last second.
