Sellers can easily select the right category for their item.
Where to list
Users with a store can select whether to list their new item in their store, auction only or both
(available if seller has an active store)
Item title

Custom Fields
Sellers can enter their selection for any custom fields.
Custom fields can be setup via the admin area and allow you to customise the item listing process. If your auction site is being targeted towards a specific marketplace you can add fields relevant to that market. For example a car auction site would be able to easily add fields to request the seller to confirm the engine size, car age, colour and mileage etc
