    Question question about listing fees?

    Hi all,
    can some one define what is meant by Highlight in the listing's for which you are charged £0.10, my understanding is that it's when the title in the auction is made Bold so it stand's out is that correct or does it refer to other parts of a listing as well??
    The reason I ask is I was going through my statement and saw this

    Date Type Auction Feature Details Amount Wed 14 Jan 2009 01:36:18 (GMT) Extras Fee(autorepost) Girl's velour dress in Garnet
    (13241585) Gallery Auction 1 x HighLight -0.10

    No,bold is a different enhancement.
    Bold £0.04 The title of your auction will be bold on all category, subcategory and search result listing pages that it appears on Highlight £0.10 The entire row of your auction will be highlighted on all category, subcategory and search result listing pages that it appears on
    I think highlight gives it a grey background so it stands out in the search list.

    Hi bluebedouin,
    Not sure if thats right either I know what you say about bold is right but I've just been looking through my listings and nearly every other one has a light bluey/grey background including my latest additions which are standard auctions unlike my original listings which are gallery auctions but in both cases nearly every other one is a light bluey/grey colour even though I didn't tick any of the feature boxes?

    I use highlighted as well as bold on some of my auctions and it produces a cream coloured background

    That's correct, the hilight would be in yellow/cream and stands out from all the other listings.

    Hi e_nviable,
    thanks for that so does that mean all highlighted auctions have a cream background or can the background be any colour?

    Hi jeweleffects,
    thank you, the same as I asked e_nviable does that mean all highlighted backgrounds are that colour or can they be any colour?

    I've never used the hilight option so I don't know, I would think not. I've only ever seen yellow hilighted boxes on lists of auctions running.
