    Music/sound on listings is a pain in the backside, I hate it!

    I've even found something in the past i was interested in but hit the back button because the sound was driving me barmy!

    Technically, I know how to do it. However, it's against eBay's rules on use of JavaScript.
    Other than that I agree that music in eBay listings is an awful concept!
    Can I help?
  • i used to put sounds/wizard etc on listings its a novelty at 1st but i recken it puts buyers off and now no longer use them

    How not to sell your items.....add a cutesy piece of music or some strange cursur wizard and your buyers will run a mile! This actually saves you a fortune in final value fees and postage costs.

    I know, but am not telling!!!, There is nothing more annoying than finding a website or ebay ad with naff midi tune over the top :mad: and full of cutesy pie animated tatt. Keep the ads simple for better sales.
