Postage Policies – You can select couriers, dispatch and delivery times for your items, the site will always show the user the average delivery windows rather than the targeted e.g. Royal mail economy second class aims for 2-3 days but often takes 3 – 5 so when you select economy it will give a 3 – 5 day estimate. This minimises the worry for the end user if royal mail fail to deliver in the target window but will also bring them great pleasure if they succeed as the item should almost always arrive earlier than estimated.

Digital delivery – You can add dropbox links to your listings so if the item is digital when it has sold it will automatically be available for the buyer to download.

Videos in listings – You can add YouTube adverts or reviews for your listings, to help better inform buyers and increase sales.
