What photos you should upload
Having many informative photos (up to 20 per listing) and ensuring their quality will help you attract a buyer’s attention and sell more quickly.
Here’s what to keep in mind when taking photos and adding them to your listing:
- First pic, full view
Show the entire item in the first picture. Don’t use collages. - Show your item’s authenticity
When listing an item by a well-known brand (e.g. a luxury brand), make sure to upload close-up photos of details like the labels and logos. Adding plenty of these details helps to show the item’s authenticity. Also, add your proof of purchase (like a receipt or invoice) whenever possible too. - Use your own pics
Don’t use stock or watermarked images, and other pictures you find online. They’re copyrighted and may not show the current condition of your item. - Capture the true colours
Choose pictures taken in natural daylight, over those taken in the lamplight. Also, don’t use flash or filters. - Reveal different angles
Take photos of the item from several angles to make the listing more appealing and complete. - Close-up of important features
Attach close-up photos of important features that aren’t visible in other photos. This may include the item’s logo, care label, stitching and/or similar details. Make sure any text is readable as well. - Show the defects
Show the item’s defects in the pics (if there are any). If you don’t mention them, the buyer might want to cancel the order and return the item.
