Creating a Great Listing

A well-crafted listing attracts serious buyers and helps you sell faster. Here's how to create a listing that stands out.

Writing Your Title

Your title is the first thing buyers see:

• Include the make, model, and year
• Add key details like "barn find" or "running project"
• Keep it clear and searchable
• Avoid ALL CAPS or excessive punctuation

Good example: "1972 MGB GT - Running Project - Solid Base"

Writing Your Description

Be thorough and honest:

• History: How long you've owned it, where it came from
• Condition: Be specific about both good and bad points
• Work done: List any restoration already completed
• Work needed: Be upfront about what's required
• Included items: Spare parts, manuals, history file

Structure Your Description

Make it easy to read:

• Use paragraphs and spacing
• Break up information logically
• Put the most important details first
• Include dimensions/measurements if relevant

What to Avoid

• Vague descriptions ("needs some work")
• Hiding problems—they'll be found at viewing
• Exaggerated claims
• Spelling and grammar errors
• Copied descriptions from other listings
