SuggestedValueLiteral
Not used by any call.

ValueID ( int ) [0..1]
Constant value that identifies the attribute or characteristic in a language-independent way. Unique within the characteristic set.

In item-listing requests, if the ID is defined as -3 or -6 (Other) in GetAttributesCS or GetProductSellingPages, use ValueLiteral to specify the string value that the user entered. Otherwise, use ValueID to specify the ID that is pre-defined in GetAttributesCS or GetProductSellingPages. In item-listing requests and product searches, the possible ID values are:
-3 = User entered an arbitrary value (not an "Other" field)
-6 = User entered a value in an "Other" field
-100 = Value not specified (null)
#### (integer) = Identifier for a pre-defined value that the user selected (e.g., -14 or 1001)
For eBay.com, required if ValueList is specified. Not applicable to Half.com.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use ValueID.
