Selling items using a drop down menu?

for example selling sports cards; on the listing they have a drop down menu where you can select which card you need to complete a regular or insert set. Are these sellers only charged by ebay for ONE auction listing. Anyone know.?

And if you use this type of listing does it work well for you??

If it IS available in the category you wish to use, you won't see the option unless you're a. in the Advanced Listing Tool and b. starting a brand new listing from scratch (ie. use the "sell" function). Using Sell Similar won't work.

Hi did you ever figure out how to do these drop down listings? I've looked everywhere for how to... I'm stumped

Here is a screen shot from the business listing form...I don't think that you can do variations on the simple form. There might be a link to change to the business form on the top right corner of your listing page.

Keep in mind that the feature is for variations (color etc) of an item, not for different items.  I know that many people do use it for different cards so I'm not sure how consistent ebay is on checking for that.

I do most of my listings in the App, so I have to dust off my ancient laptop to get the Ebay website to create/update my listings with variations.

Honestly, they're more of a pain than they're worth these days. I think they're really only worth it if you have a LOT of stock that varies by color or size or scent. Mostly because we get so many free listings every month. And I can't maintain the listings in the app. And I can't send offers for more common variations. Also because I'm convinced that variations aren't always returned in search results. Not all they're cracked up to be...
