Ebay Trading API discountPriceInfo.OriginalPrice doesn't show

Question

I want to show the originalPrice over my Price in my ebay auction.

I see that a lot of sellers do it so it is possible.

I add the follow code to my AddItem Request:

<DiscountPriceInfo>
    <OriginalRetailPrice currencyID="EUR">100.00</OriginalRetailPrice>
</DiscountPriceInfo>

The Api Return Success but the Original price isn't show!

Answer 1

Sounds like you're talking about Strike-Through Pricing (STP), correct?

According to the eBay docs here, this is only valid for US, UK, and DE -- and the seller may need special approval by eBay to use STP.
