How do I correct the item count in a bundle listing?
A four-to-three storage-box correction updates the title and description together, preserves the stated bundle price and checks the photos for contradiction.
Prepared with AI assistance. Original worked examples are fictional; primary sources are linked beside the claims they support.
When a bundle count changes, correct every claim about what the buyer receives. Preserve the price only if that is what the seller intends. A count correction does not authorize recalculating a bundle price as though it were a per-item rate.
This original fictional example concerns storage boxes. It demonstrates a cross-field correction, not an actual offer or a price recommendation.
The original listing facts
The draft describes “four lidded storage boxes, $24 for the bundle.” Each box is reported as 40 cm long × 30 cm wide × 25 cm high, with light surface scuffs. Ground-floor collection is offered at an agreed time. The seller then checks the set and reports: “There are three boxes with matching lids. Keep the whole-bundle price at $24.” No change to dimensions, reported condition or collection arrangements is supplied.
The correct count is now three. The asking price stays $24 for the bundle. It would be wrong to reduce the price to $18 by assuming a $6 unit price; the original statement was a bundle price and the correction explicitly keeps it.
The corrected listing
Three lidded storage boxes — $24 for the bundle
Three used storage boxes with three matching lids and light surface scuffs. Each box is reported as 40 cm long × 30 cm wide × 25 cm high. The $24 asking price is for all three boxes and lids together.
Ground-floor collection at an agreed time. Please confirm your collection arrangement before travelling.
Before publishing, compare the condition description with each actual box and replace any photograph or caption that still shows or states four included boxes. This demonstration contains no item photographs. The supplied surface-scuff description does not imply that every other possible defect has been checked or excluded.
Check the image and text together
Search the title, description, included-items field and captions for the old count. Inspect the photographs: a fourth box in the image may confuse a buyer even when the description says three. An unrelated background object can be explicitly excluded, but the clearest image should show the intended bundle.
This consistency check reflects the practical purpose of eBay's accuracy and condition policy. The example does not publish to eBay or certify compliance with a platform.
