Item description (text field; max of 512 characters)
Images (max of 5 per item)

Range of prices which the user can select as what someone would pay for it (for simplicity, we can go with a range from $0 to $50 with increments of $10 for the game)
Ability to indicate sentiment (Love it, Like it, Neutral, Leave it or Hate it); these could be icons which the user can click to make a selection
