What are Categories?

eBay's categories are like the signs in a store that guide shoppers to the specific department, aisle, and shelf where an item is located.

Each category begins with a top-level description, such as "Jewellery & Watches", and continues with up to five more levels. For example, you might find a woman's watch listed in:

"Jewellery & Watches > Wristwatches > Women's Watches"

Select the best category for your item so that interested buyers will find it easily.
