Submit Your Auction

  1. Review our Guidelines.
    Before submitting your item, please read through our help section to find out what you are not allowed to sell.

  2. Find the right starting price.
    It's important to set a reasonable starting price - set it too high and you may discourage bidders. Here's help in finding the right price:

    • Closed Auction Search - Look up the closing auction prices on similar items by using our Advanced Search. Or simply go to the correct category and click on "Show closed auctions."

  3. Submit many items at once.
    Any user with a rating above 5 can use our bulk loader to upload many auctions at once. Follow our step-by-step instructions to put all your items into a single file for uploading. Find out more about the Bulk Loader.

  4. Develop a template.Yahoo! Notepad
    To speed up the auction submission process, you may want to develop a standard format for all your auctions. You can use Yahoo! Notepad to create and store all your templates.

  5. Pay attention to title, description, and page layout.
    Make your auction attractive and informative. Use HTML tags in your description to lay out the page exactly the way you want it. Include up to 10 photos for each item free of charge. You can upload 3 photos directly on Yahoo! Auctions, then upload the balance of the images to a web site of your choice, and simply point to that URL.
