Using
Different Fonts in Your Auction Descriptions
Using fancy fonts is a great
way to catch the eye of bidders. But it is important to remember that
just because you have a unique font on your computer does not mean that
all your bidders have it installed on their own computers too. Those without
the font installed will just see the default font their internet browser
uses.
Here are some of the most common
fonts used to dress up auctions.

<font

Arial |
<font
face="verdana">text here</font> |
Verdana |
<font
face="times new roman">text here</font> |
Times New
Roman |
<font
face="georgia">text here</font> |
Georgia |
<font
face="'Comic Sans MS"> text here</font> |
Comic Sans
MS |
The Comic Sans MS has become
very popular in eBay auction listings, and it usually comes installed
on all new computers, so you shouldn't have too many people looking at
your auction who are unable to see that font.
Don't forget to put the font
tag at the very beginning of your description, and then at the very end
of your description, insert the </font> tag.
