Showing shoppers what theirs is worth

Lots of buyers own things worth selling and never list them. They aren’t on eBay to check prices; they’re shopping or browsing. But when someone is looking at a kind of item, we know what it sells for. A small module can say so, and offer a one-tap, pre-filled listing.

Each targets a different barrier, and only one shows per session.

1. 1Not knowing the price: a typical sold price, the range and real recent sales.
2. 2No reason to act now: added only when demand is genuinely high, like 40 listings against 2,300 searches this week.
3. 3It feels like effort: a lighter, category-level nudge for casual shoppers browsing low-price items.

A generic “sell your stuff” banner had raised listing attempts but lowered completions. These modules use evidence about the specific item instead, and sit a few results down rather than at the top.
