Catalogue and URL Sales

Listings of URLs that offer buyers the opportunity to purchase items outside of eBay are prohibited.

Listings of catalogues from which buyers may directly order items are prohibited. In these situations, the seller will typically offer the catalogue for low bid prices and complete sales outside of eBay for items found in the catalogue.

Old and collectable catalogues (e.g., those that you cannot order from any longer) are permissible; however the title or description may not contain extensive lists of specific items included in the catalogue.

Old and collectable catalogue listings must also abide by the following guidelines:

  1. The seller of old and collectable catalogues may not benefit from any subsequent sales from the listed suppliers.
  2. No extensive lists of specific brand names, items, categories or prices may be used in the title or description of the item listing (e.g. Sony, Prada, Gucci, Handbags for £29.95, etc.). Any additional information or categories should be provided via the further information link allowed on all listings. Before adding a link off your item listings page, please review the eBay Links Policy at: http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/community/png-links.html
  3. Old and collectable catalogues may not be combined as a bonus item with any other listing.
