    Default Product attributes "Enter your own value"

    Hey Guys I'm trying to post something for the first time on Ebid and have a problem when it comes to the Product Attributes section. I see that there is the chance to enter something other than what is shown on the list but there is no button or instruction about how to add them. If I press enter it is as if I have clicked on "preview changes"! Can somebody please explain what I should do. Thanks.

    Hi this is my biggest issue as well. There currently isn't a way to add your own variants to a listing on eBid. I've been in touch with support but it looks like pre-selected attributes are the only thing being considered for upgrading categories.

    The sole work around I've found is to create a listing & its variants in eBay then use eBid's bulk upload. It forces a variant wizard to appear here but only price and quanity can be edited, no new variants can be added. It's not great as subsequent uploads double up the listings and duplicates have to be deleted.

    If you click on "none of the above" a box appears into which you can type your words.

    Oh Madelaine this would be wonderful!! Which category were you using to get the 'none of the above' option only I don't have it on any of my imported listings?

    I know in the beads section there is.
    You need to check different categories and see the drop down (if any are)

    You use the drop down and scroll down to see "none above". There should be a box to enter your attribute

    A sort of update on this after contacting support, 'bespoke values' will apparently be along soon. This is such good news and will hopefully stop some sellers having to rely on importing other marketplace listings. Very much looking forward to the launch day
