Item Specifics

Item Specifics are details about an item. For example, if you have a sweater, the colour is "red".

When you enter more details about the item you're listing, that information is used by our search engine so buyers can more easily find your items. We will index the most commonly used item specifics for keyword search on ebay.com.sg.


  • Specifics can be added two ways: either by choosing popular choices available by using the drop-down button, or by typing in your own details.

  • You may add a custom detail by using the "Add a custom detail" link. Once you click it, two boxes will open. Add the name of the detail in the top box, for example "Colour", and its associated value, for example, "Red" in the box below.


  • Use Item Specifics to help your listing look more polished and easier to read.

  • Use Item Specifics to make the details easier for buyers to find on your listing's View Item page.

  • Use the Add More Specifics area to give more detail about hard to describe items. For example, if you're selling a unique collectable, perhaps there's something that helps describe it, such as its texture, the material it's made from or the era it was produced.
