I did follow Callum's recommendations and found that 'My Products' did allow me to create listings the way I wanted to, and does seem to be pretty straightforward to use for basic listings. So I have created a few to see how the actual auction process works for me and buyers, and will find out next week when first sale is completed.

Hi Callum Thanks for your thoughts. Sounds like 'My Products' could be some use, I will have a look at it later this week. (Sounds like it may work for items with Buy Now, but many of my listings are likley to be auctions)  

Thanks to blade_dn for quick response. I seem to share some of the same issues as the other people in this earlier thread I'm a casual seller, not 'In Trade' , I've no need for a listing tool.  I'm selling individual items by auction, and don't have multiples of the same product avaiable. Sellers in the past who have won multiple individual auctions have often aksed me to send all purchases in one shipment so they only incur one shipping charge. The other contributor comments suggest I may still be able to offer this for Buy Now listings ? The payment options are now 'more structured' , but...
