Live

Live auction, on-site auction that can include non-eBay bidders. (Use AddLiveAuctionItem to list live auctions.) Live auctions are listed on the eBay Live Auctions site, in live auction categories. They can also appear on eBay if the seller lists the lot in a secondary category that is an eBay category.

AdType

Advertisement to solicit inquiries on listings such as real estate. Permits no bidding on that item, service, or property. To express interest, a buyer fills out a contact form that eBay forwards to the the seller as a lead. This format does not enable buyers and sellers to transact online through eBay, and eBay Feedback is not available for ad format listings.

StoresFixedPrice

A fixed-price format for eBay Store sellers. Store Inventory listings appear after other listings in regular browse and search item lists on eBay. They have a lower Insertion Fee and longer listing durations. Only available to sellers who have an eBay Store. Store Inventory listings are listed on eBay.com, and they are also listed in the seller's eBay Store. Starting in early June 2008, on the Italy site, stores fixed price items will be treated as basic fixed-price items; please see the documentation for FixedPriceItem (that is, for the basic fixed-price item format).

PersonalOffer

Second chance offer made to a non-winning bidder on an ended listing. A seller can make an offer to a non-winning bidder when either the winning bidder has failed to pay for an item or the seller has a duplicate of the item. A seller can create a Second Chance Offer immediately after a listing ends and up to 60 days after the end of the listing. eBay does not charge an Insertion Fee, but if the bidder accepts the offer, the regular Final Value Fee is charged. In the case of an Unpaid Item, the seller should ensure that everything has been done to resolve the issue with the winning bidder before sending a Second Chance Offer to another bidder. See the Unpaid Items Process for details. Make sure you're aware of other rules and restrictions surrounding Second Chance Offers. Use AddSecondChanceItem to submit Second Chance Offers. Listed on eBay, but does not appear when browsing or searching listings.

Sellers must meet certain feedback requirements and/or be ID Verified to use this format. See Minimum Feedback Requirements for Various Features in the Trading Web Services guide. Fixed-price listings are listed on eBay.com, and they are listed in the seller's eBay Store if the seller is a Store owner.
