eBay Title Character Counter
When you send an item from open cart to ebay you have a limit of 80 characters for the eBay Title.
I would like to see a title character counter, to make it easier and quicker when creating ebay Listings

HI
The titles for the type of parts i sell are naturally quite long (mobile phone parts, require details of part and model, brand etc), i could really use a title character counter. Please can you provide this feature. -
I think a common rule in selling is you'll want to have your title short and direct, the sub-title is where you could add more details if available or larger within the description to drive that sale home.
We will consider this a feature, however if you're going over 80 characters you may want to edit so it's direct and outlines what a customer is looking for when they do a search for goods.
Eg: Mint condition Gold Rolex Circa 2010 with Box - 45 characters and pretty much says what it is to the point with room for a few more details
Whereas a bad example would be :
Eg: OFFICIAL Mint condition Gold Rolex - 2010 - LOW PRICE - GOING FAST - ONLY 15 LEFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -126 Characters - might get many views but may raise a red flag as to how you have so many Rolex watches and the quality of the product you're trying to sell.
Granted, this is probably why eBay have started to limit the number of characters within the title.
