We resently came across a product that really needs to be seen in action or at least heard. Just pictures alone will not do this product justice.
Is it possible to put a sound or short video file into a listing? If anyone has any advise, we sure would appreciate it.

Should be able to do it using javascript but I'm not sure if eBay allows it...
I've come across a couple of auctions in the past that have put in fancy animations or music in the background, I usually just hit the "back" button quickly...

While looking at ham radios, was offered by the seller to have them send a sound file of the radio. You may want to put that in your description, some may want to wait for it all to load, some may not.

Include a link to another page that has the video and audio on it. Tell the bidder what is there so they can decide if they want it. Avoid all links to another 'sales' site on that page or ebay will shut you down. fast

Please include it in your auction as a link or have the possible buyer email you for it - as there is nothing I hate more then going into an auction that has these magnificant backgrounds - jingle bells music playing and a video of santa coming down the chimney. Of course, I am exaggerting a bit - but those auctions that have all of that fancy garbage in it turn me off. They take forever to load - and if I go into an auction and it is slow to load - I hit the back button and move on!!
