Comparative pricing policy

Comparative pricing information can help buyers understand the level of discount a seller is offering, which may entice them to buy.

When a seller includes comparative pricing data in their listing, they need to understand, accept, and agree to the conditions we've set out in this policy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's comparative pricing?

Comparative pricing refers to when a seller includes a recommended or historical price for an item, and then makes a comparison to the current selling price. It can help a seller establish the value of the discount to buyers.

How do I prove a previous selling price?

Sellers should hold evidence (for example, receipts or detailed sales records) demonstrating that a number of items were sold at the previous selling price, and that the previous selling price was offered for a minimum period of time. eBay may request this information.
