Ebay changes - stores - how do we use it thru Auctiva?

[/QUOTE]Hi! Sorry the response you received didn't address your question.

Unless I am missing something, I don't believe that Store listings you currently have live on ebay would even be eligible for the .10 insertion fee promotion by just switching them over to fixed price.
You can end your Store inventory listings and then repost them as Fixed Price to receive the discounted rate. It was my understanding that new listings would get the .10 insertion fee, but not items that are currently listed in SIF.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about that [/QUOTE]

Rebecca is correct, but it sounds like Auctive didn't have a clue either about this wopper of a change and sale.

End them early change them in Auctiva post them and you get the discount. Make sure you have the correct duration as they default to 7 days.

Been doing this all week just before they expire.

We need a way to bulk edit the profiles. All references to Buyers being responsible for items lost in shipping need to be removed.

I can understand that we can't make the adjustment while the items are active, but it would be a great thing to bulk edit when we relist.

Didn't this have to be done last fall? I edited all my listings when ebay announced that last year--did i do all that work waaay before i had to?

I edited my profiles to remove my statements about me not being responsible for lost items and the insurance blurb. That automatically updated my saved listings that were using those profiles.

Not worth my time to edit the closed listings that I wanted to relist since so few are eligible for the insert fee credit. I just post a new listing from a saved one. That way I'll know it's correct and i won't have to worry about it. Last thing i need is to be on feebay's naughty list.

Butterflies.. that was last fall. However, I read somewhere that they are just beginning to enforce it. I learned alot through that change.. about what actually goes into the description area and what I put in profiles. It is much easier to fix the profile than the listing. I am sure most of you thought that out way before now. . just thought I would share that in case someone has not.

Of course, now in process of pulling all listings and re-doing again with the fixed price format and 10 cents listing fee.

Marine.. thanks for the information you sent. For some reason I had missed the notification on this.. but thank you. I have contacted them.

Thanks again

Currently I am going into MyeBay and sending 20-30 items per day to FP. That way, when they all end and I relist, they will already be refomatted, just incase eBay doesn't do it automatically.

That's a smart way to do it. Can you imagine what it will be like on ebay march 30th when they are changing all the store inventory over? how can they handle all that without disrupting the site? and screwing everything up?

I noticed that you can change the subtitle (remove it) on active ebay listings using that revise live listings tool. Was that what you were trying to find? Or the tool that revises your saved listings? I've tried them both when i had to change alot of ads all at once.

Hi- quick question.. I am sure you have thought of, but just in case you have not. You DO realize that just moving store listing to fixed price in ebay you are not getting the 10 cents fee they are running right now???
I am 99% sure I heard you have to officially end the listing and then totally re-start it to get the 10 cents special.

Just a thought and a hair off subject.

Vickie,

You are correct.

If using Auctiva end the listing in eBay, go to closed listings, import to saved and revise it to FP. Watch the duration as it defaults to 7 days.

Right now I am listing for 30 days then I will rethink my lower priced listings and maybe bundle them closer to fee day.
