eBay for Charity are in the process of a total revamp with behind the scenes improvements and a brand new charity site.
The new site is a mini eBay just for charity items, with new tabs for , and . Plenty of charity auctions are highlighted on the site including currently which is the most expensive charity item currently on eBay.
I’d encourage all professional eBay sellers to visit the . Greater visibilty for your items translates into higher profits and even donating a small percentage to charity makes a big difference. Plus it’s not only great advertising, but can be offset against your profits for the year so may result in you paying less tax.
The selling process on eBay for charity has been simplified, and there’s no longer a requirement to register seperately with Missionfish. All of your charity selling activity can be handled within My ebay along with your non-charity sales.
So far eBay users in the UK have raised over £5 million for good causes through eBay for Charity. Whether you are selling or buying have a browse at the new site – it goes fully functional on Friday this week when you’ll be able to start listings items for sale to benefit .

I don’t believe that he US site has one of these yet. We do have charity listings, but there never seem to be that many of them. I would definitely welcome a separate US eBay charity site.
Good news for the US – your revamped eBay for Charity site is called eBay Giving Works and is available at https://givingworks.ebay.com/
Great news this. It has been some time in planning but I really hope the execution is flawless. Getting charity selling into My eBay will make such a difference particularly in the consumer selling area where I know major charities are really keen to grow.
One to watch with interest.
