Check two-item, three-item and larger baskets separately, including postage, fees and what happens with a partial return.
THE SOURCED NEWS
What happened?
eBay’s October 2026 edition highlights expanded Authenticity Guarantee coverage for eligible trading cards priced at £250 or more, alongside bundle discounts for multi-item orders. The readable monthly page does not state an exact publication day.
The bundle help page explains opt-in tiers for two, three and four-or-more items, with seller-selected exclusions. It also says a partial return recalculates the discount against the items kept.
SELLERBUNDLE PRACTICAL ANALYSIS
A bigger basket can still leave less profit
Start with a combination buyers might reasonably want. Add the product costs, packaging, order-level delivery, fees and your proposed discount. If the parcel moves into a more expensive size or weight band, include that change instead of assuming every extra item ships for free.
Check the low-margin products as well as the obvious best sellers. Decide which listings belong in the offer and review the exclusions. Keep the offer small enough that you can inspect ordinary completed orders before expanding it.
SELLERBUNDLE PRACTICAL ANALYSIS
Think about the order after the sale
Read the return and discount rules alongside your own fulfilment process. A buyer keeping fewer items can change the discount that applied to the basket. Make sure the team handling the order understands the marketplace’s supported calculation rather than inventing a separate refund rule.
Use the free bundle checker as a planning tool with your current costs. It does not reproduce every eBay promotion or refund rule. Confirm the settings in your account and compare the contribution from actual orders, not just the number of items sold.
