Business Identification Feature

eBay intend to launch a new feature called Business Identification that will let buyers know they are buying from a business seller rather than an individual. It will also allow business sellers to easily identify themselves as such on View Item Pages and their Member Profile.

Once the feature launches in October whenever you see “Registered as a Business Seller” you will know that the seller is registered as a business with eBay and has to adhere to certain laws and practices.
If you have already registered your VAT details with eBay you will automatically be added to the list of Business sellers when the scheme comes into operation. This is not a totally unexpected move and it will obviously have implications for many eBay sellers. At UK Auction Line we intend to study the details and will add a new article about this feature in the next day or two in the sellers section of the web site
