How do I know which eBay Category to put my Item in?
- You can browse through the eBay tree in Connect. Or you can go to eBay and search for a similar item to that you are selling and see which category that is in. If multiple categories are available usually a good rule of thumb is to choose the category with the most items in that match your search.
- Note: In Connect you can add a product to multiple eBay categories.

What is GTC?

Is there a way not to Pay Listing Fees on GTC ?
- If you have an item listed as GTC and stock has run out, when you add stock again, Connect will automatically relist your item again and eBay will charge a new listing fee as per their terms. It can help you avoid going out of stock so often by adding stock you have in other areas to the total available. For example some retailers keep stock in a showroom or window, if there are 3 items in these areas they can be added to the total available.
