I have a question about listing in 2 catagories

Posted May-13-08 08:43:00 PDT

This has been nagging me for a while so thought I would ask opinions. 

Say you have a Vintage Sapphire Ring   you would list in -Jewelry & Watches - Rings - Gemstones....would you also want to list in Jewelry & Watches - Vintage ETC?

Or would you just do the main catagory since it will come up in the general Ring catagory anyway?

Thanks

Frodo

I use one and if no bids ~ I revise it and put into another and so on~ then this will bring it back on top as new list:)

Thats a good question. I would include ring in the title.

Fees can be much higher when you use multiple categories. Check out the fee schedule. I only do it when I think the payoff will be worth the extra expense.

morning frodo!! (hug)

for me, I'd save money and list it once and use 'vintage' in the title since I believe people use keywork lookups more than category lookups...

imho

keywork = keyword

(that's what I get for getting stoned in the blogs...)

good morning frodo :0)

JMO -I rarely use 2 categories - most use search and keywords. I think your 1st choice is fine.

HMMMM- Thanks for all your opinions....I use 2nd catagories A LOT....especially since they stopped the fee for gallery.

Sometimes I will list in a very FRINGE catagory.....Like I had a BEAUTIFUL Leather Wolf journel. I listed it in Journals AND in something like FINE arts or something like that. Because I knew it was to special to go into the stationary - journal catagory. The person bid something like 40.00 for it. He said he saw it in the Art catagory.


I think I will make a better effort in my titles...

I didn't know that by changing cat's it would bring it back as a new listing....learn something new every day.
