eBay listing title limits

Listing title: hard limit 80 characters. Enforced on every result. Every space and punctuation mark counts. Include 4-7 concrete specs (brand, size, colour, model) — these drive conversion.

How we verified these rules

  • Length limits: taken from multiple independent sources and not yet confirmed directly with eBay. We’d rather tell you than imply certainty we don’t have.

Last checked 2026-08-02. Marketplaces change these without notice — always confirm against your own listing form before bulk-editing.

The mistake most eBay sellers make

Padding with words like L@@K or NEW!!! — these consume part of the 80-character budget and eBay's search ignores them.

Before

L@@K!! Nike Trainers Mens NEW!! Fast Free Postage!!

After

Nike Air Max 90 Mens Trainers UK 9 White Black Leather

Every character now carries a specification a buyer might filter or search on.

eBay listing title FAQ

How long can an eBay title be?
80 characters, and every space and punctuation mark counts. The API rejects longer titles with ErrorCode 70 rather than trimming them.
What should go in an eBay title?
Four to seven concrete specifications — brand, model, size, colour, material, condition. Listings with four or more specs convert substantially better than vaguer ones.
