I have gotten my hands on about 20-25 pairs of levi jeans. 550, 501, Silver Tab, Womens and mens. I was given them free. They are like new, some never worn from looks of tags.
Should I list as groups or each one separate?
How much info, such as measurements, is needed?
Do I need pictures and if so, how many?
Any advice is greatly appreciated, thank you all in advance.
Sorry I misspelled advice in title!

I would say the more you can list in your description the better. People WANT measurements! I would measure the waist and the inseam for sure. Pictures are a must also, folks wanna see what they are buying.
Personally I would list them individually. But I think thats a personal preference. Some people really like to buy in lots, but I find I make more when I list individually. You might want to make a note in your auction for multiples winning bidders, maybe ship two for the price of one or something? Just be aware....jeans are heavy!

I personnally would list them by size and design-501, etc. Yes on the pic's and every detail you can put in. Buyer cannot see them in their hands, so details count. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Hi, I would list them all separately. People look for all different kinds of styles & cuts (baggy, straight leg, etc).
I would take about 4 pics of each pair. A pic of the front (you should be able to see the whole pair in the picture - hanging on a wall is best) a picture of the back, a close up of the back pockets, and a close up of the label. I do this on any pair of pants that I sell.
Measurements for men's jeans:
1) Waist
2) Inseam
For women's:
1) Waist
2) Hips
3) Inseams
If you do all that you should do very well with them. Good luck!
Edited to add: You should also put in any details such as:
1)How many pockets?
2)Are there pleats?
3)Are they button-fly or do they have a zipper?

I would list them separately, and offer to combine shipping. Start the bidding at $9.99. Priority shipping will be about $5-6. You can fit two pairs of jeans in a big priority box.
Include waist and inseam measurements. If they are ladies jeans, include the hip (the wide part) measurement also.

I have bought jeans on eBay, and I love, love, *LOVE* it when sellers list the measurements IN THE TITLE. "Levi 505 34 X 30" for example.
