UnitInfoType

This type provides information about the weight, volume or other quantity measurement of a listed item. The European Union requires listings for certain types of products to include the price per unit so buyers can accurately compare prices. eBay uses the UnitType and UnitQuantity values and the item's listed price to calculate and display the per-unit price on eBay EU sites.
