Having informative photos (up to 5 per listing) and ensuring their quality will help you attract a buyer’s attention and sell more quickly.
Note
The maximum file size allowed for each photo is 3 MB.
Here are 6 things 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. No collages, please. - Use your own pics
Don’t use stock images, pictures you find online or watermarks. They’re copyrighted and may not depict the current condition of the 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. - 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.
