Record tagged size and actual measurements separately
Assign the garment an inventory identifier, photograph its size and care labels where readable, and write down its current sale condition. Then choose measurements that answer the buyer's likely question: chest width and length for a top, waist and inseam for trousers, or another clearly described garment-specific dimension. Keep the tagged size as a label fact rather than quietly changing it to match your interpretation of the measured width.
eBay's sizing guidance asks sellers to choose the supported size that best represents the item and add tagged-size, fit and measurement details when needed. Its examples include chest, length, waist and inseam. That is platform guidance, not a universal conversion chart. A measured width does not prove how the garment fits a particular person; fabric, cut, intended ease and the buyer's own comparison garment all matter.
- Keep label size, flat measurements and any fit notes in distinct fields.
- Use the same inventory ID for the tape photos, labels and garment overview.
