You want to do one listing with different sports cards so that the buyer can choose which one they want?   That's called a variation listing and is supposed to be for when you have the same item but with different options such as color, size etc.  I know that there are listings with various sports cards but eBay may take them down if they don't follow their variation policy.

 

In the top half of the listing form there is a section called 'create variations' and that's where you would set up the different variations.  You may need to switch to the business listing form to see the variation option.

I discovered years ago that variations were often allowed in the Other subcategory of the main category of your item. I figured out this by checking sellers who managed to do variations in officially unsupported catagories.

I don’t know if it still works on either site.

you may or may not be able to do it on .ca.  Go in and try and if the create variation option selection box doesnt pop up when you select category of item for your sale you wont be able to do it on the .ca site.

 

I say this as I went thru this same rigamarole last fall to try to sell some CD's.  I noticed the variation option worked for some items but not for others.  I called CS to get clarification and they told me they did not understand why it did not work on .ca for CDs but did on .com so they told me to create the listing on .com.  I raised the issue on here and was told no ifs ands or buts that what this CSR told me was wrong (despite the CSR telling me on two separate occasions during the call that she needed to get supervisory clarification on the issue and did, both times) and the listings risked being taken down.  No explanation was given for this rationale when I asked.  When I continued to press the issue all I got was the runaround, the issue was avoided and I never got a definitive answer, just "we'll get back to you" (well known corporate speak for pfo) until I realized it was pointless pursuing it and dropped the issue.  Not sure what all the furtive & evasive funny business was all about, it still seems pretty straightforward to me - if American sellers can do it, why can't Canadian sellers? Who knows, but all I know is they dont want to address the issue.      

Under shipping there is an option for local pick up
