AI Bags Photography for Ebay

Bags are one of the most photo-dependent categories on eBay. Buyers cannot feel whether the leather is stiff or slouchy, cannot check if the corners are rubbed through, and cannot judge whether a "medium tote" fits a laptop. They decide from a square thumbnail in search results and then from how thoroughly your 24 photo slots answer those questions. A handbag listing with four photos and no interior shot loses to an identical bag with 18 photos, even at a higher price.

eBay also treats bags differently from most categories. Pre-owned women's bags and handbags use structured condition descriptors, so you are effectively being asked to prove your condition claims with images. Eligible designer handbags above eBay's price threshold route through Authenticity Guarantee, where a third-party authenticator inspects the physical bag, and your photos of date codes, hardware stamps and interior tags decide whether buyers trust the listing enough to bid at all.

The technical bar is low: 500 pixels minimum on the longest side, JPEG or PNG, under 12MB. The practical bar is much higher. Shoot at 1600 pixels or more on the longest side so zoom activates, keep the main image on plain white with no text or borders, and treat every scuff as something to photograph rather than hide.
