First, make an eBay account and sign in. Then, click on “sell” in the top right corner
Click on “list an item” 
If you’re selling a product that is fairly common, eBay allows you to search for your item and select a pre-filled listing. Here, we’re listing AirPods.
eBay will ask you to select the condition of the item. 
On the next page, edit and add any details to the listing, including a title and a description. Here, you can add photos of your item or use a stock photo provided by eBay. 
Then, set your price. If you plan to sell only via a bid, you can choose eBay’s recommended start price or choose your own. You can also set a “Buy it now” price that allows customers to purchase your item immediately. 
Enter your item’s dimensions and select shipping options. You can also arrange for local pickup for nearby customers. 
Hit “List it” when you’re ready to list. You can also preview your listing.
