"eBay Pulse"

"eBay Pulse" is another area where you can figure out what people are looking for on "The World's Online Marketplace®." It contains a category's daily snapshot of ten most popular searches and stores with most active listings. A subsection on "eBay Pulse," known as "Most Watched Items," reveals ten auctions that are getting most attention. Visit this page and select a category to study from drop-down menu.

"Merchandising Calendar"

The last area with information on what to sell on eBay is "Merchandising Calendar." Here, eBay shows you categories they will promote on their homepage each month. This is where eBay "tells" you what to sell. You can ignore their calendar and sell anything you choose, but wouldn't it be easier to make sales if you took advantage of eBay's promotional influence? Look at this page and use calendar as a guide in planning your inventory and listings.
