And BTW I dont have simple coding. It's a fairly complex template constructed by sellercore which is why I paid them.

Countess,  Great advice as usual,   but sadly some OPS find it easier to name call than to take advice.

 

Just looked at OPS feedback to their negative feedback,   not really the greatest way to respond to customers either.

For anyone else interested in this topic, the HTML to give one’s listings on eBay a pleasant and professional look is unlikely to be complicated. (In my opinion.)

 

 

I know a lot about HTML. I wouldn't use it on eBay as it's much easier to use the tools they provide.

 

KISS

Unlikely to be necessary, either. I wouldn't take the time to jazz my listings up to deter potential buyers when the basic tools eBay supply are (generally) more than sufficient.

That’s my view as well, purely as a buyer. 

Simple and elegant design can give an overall impression to attract the buyer, just as clumsy and messy design can do the opposite… but the amount of personalisation needed (or wanted by the seller) on eBay listings to get good and consistent sales is probably best kept to the minimum.

 

eBay can tinker and in an instant a 3rd party design can go kefupfelupfel. (My own word.)

 

And a very good word it is indeed, Countess.

 

Much like the OP's very professional 'Knew Arrivals'

Great new word.

 

I must admit I have looked at OP's listings and agree with you and Davewill to keep it simple.   When I look at OP's listing, my immediate impression is they are from china,  as they are the templates that they tend to use.  Even the photo's have that cheap drop ship look.

Listings look good to me and would be appropriate for the items being sold.

Funny you should mention that Sugar, I thought the same thing and went to their feedback page to see if they were actually Australian when the OP first posted here.
