I don't use the multiple variation listings but I think Auciva should at least post some kind of update. Makes me wonder if the news is bad and that they are afraid they would lose some customers.

Hi - thanks for word of support there. It is appreciated very much. 
I personally think they are more likely to lose customers because of lack of response (which to me ='s lack of interest) than not having it at this point. (later perhaps they may lose).
However, my feeling is they need to find and post a go around for doing things they are not providing instead of sellers trying to constantly find their own.
I know of several people who have left lately because of lack of responses and vague responses to many issues.
If I do not answer a question on ebay the buyer would interpret as I am uninterested. I am getting same impression lately from auctiva. When they were debating the new fees they were HOT and HEAVY on the boards constantly! Wonder what happened after they got the fees? We no longer have live support (unless we are on $19.95 plan) and the answers I get from support are very bad lately and have lots of misinformation. (reminds me of ebays old responses a little bit).
Thanks again for your support.

There has been about 25 posts since their last appearence on August 3rd. You know they read this. Why won't they comment? They are quick to chime in on eBay's forums if anyone is complaing about Auctiva.

After much looking on this multiple variations, I find this link to day from auctiva.. perhaps this is where we need to put be giving our input since it is not being responded to here in a couple of months. They asked for reply??

Hi- I did write support request today on this and got quick reply. It said engineers are currently working to integrate with their services. This is large project & there is no ETA.
I also asked that this be replied to in forums rather than ignored.
I was also told that concerns can also be addressed through the support site. Sooooo.. .if this is something we want, I guess not only listing on forums, but we have to write support notes too.
I just assumed the forums would get response since Auctiva was hot and heavy on them with the fees discussion and on the commerce site. I did not want to bog down support with issues that did not relate to listing problems.
But.. now I am understanding that possibly we should do both. Maybe the squeaky wheel gets the grease, as commerce has been squeaking and they get lots of grease (though from what I could tell it is needed).
I also asked that the threads possibly be combined in one place so they are not straggling around out there. That way if we get response they will be on same thread.
Hope this helps some.. .figure at this point we have nothing to loose.
If you have not written support, I suggest gettin on with the gettin' on.
Thanks

Hello! Just popped in to check out another issue, and was surprised to see this old thread still going... and with no clear answers yet.
I've been using the multi variation feature directly through eBay since originally posting here. I really do like it... especially the lack of numerous auctions to keep track of. But the FVF is higher (I think 12% vs. 8% in the clothing category?) so there's a trade off, IMHO, at least with my low volume inventory. (i.e., if you're listing 100 items for one insertion fee, that's a huge savings... but when it's only 10, not so much.
As a result though, I'm becoming pretty comfortable navigating the SYI form at eBay. To the point that I don't list much through here anymore. I wonder how many sellers Auctiva is losing due to this?
While I'm here, my "other issue" is with regard to writing my Auctiva listings. Whenever I copy/paste text instead of typing it, the fonts, text size, and placement in the text box gets all screwed up. It will look fine until I hit "preview", and then it's all nutty. VERY frustrating. I'm about ready to give up here. Has anyone else had this problem?
****Off to check the board for related threads.**** Good luck everyone, and take care! Linda

You are right.. navigating the sell your item form is MUCH, MUCH easier than it use to be. I have used it also for multiple's a few times.. and like the form MUCH better than the old form for sure. It just is so much more logical than previous form.
Yes, I am astounded no responses. I know a couple of friends of mine have already left and a couple more who sell lots of multiples are going to do same.
Support implied that we need to write to them. . . guess they had rather 15 people write than read the forums and respond to everyone.
Gut feeling is they should have some estimate, if it is a year out, 2 years to work on, 6 months or whatever. Should be able to base this on how long it has taken other things to be put into place. Would be nice as seller to know so we can plan our sales listings.
Thanks for checking in .. . there are many threads on this.. and I have asked that they combine. . ???
The issue with the jumbling.. I have had same problem and I did not cut &^ paste. They told me to go in and select all, then hit the eraser. It clears the HTML from what I understand and then you can put in fonts, etc., as you wish. I was also told this is due to new software they are using that older listings do this??? Do not know if I was given correct info. I would sure write suppport.. .

Auctiva.. how about a bone, throw us dogs a bone, to keep us quiet. have not heard from you since August on the forums???
We need to be able to plan also and get ready to use this feature when and if it becomes available.
This will be a big job for sellers too at the start, so we do need to PLAN.

Thanks for the help, lookandbuy! I think it must be because I'm recycling old (similar) listings rather than starting from scratch. Good to know!
I tried the eraser trick, which seems to have helped a bit, but didn't correct everything. I'm still finding sentences out of order, for example.
I wasted an hour this morning on a single listing! I finally gave up, erased the whole thing, and typed the description manually. What a PITA. I guess I'll need to write up some new listings from scratch to eliminate the software issue. (Though the main reason I've stayed on here is so I don't lose my older listings and photos...) Thanks again!
Linda B, sometimes when I can't get that to work I open notepad, cut and paste description in it. Then recopy from notepad and put into listing. Sometimes when the magic eraser does not work, that helps. I use both and usually one works pretty well. I have also done just a couple of lines that give me a hard time.
Glad it worked, it took me forever to realize the problem was not one I necessarily created.
Good luck.

Sexybiggals.. I do find it interesting that they are scouring posts for auctiva violations, but can't respond.
Yesterday someone had posted numerous forums link that recommended another site and the links were removed within hours. (it is violation of policy to post those links so was Auctivas right to do so). However, I do find scouring boards for violations interesting in light of fact that we have had no response since August. Seems rather than scouring for violations time could be spent answering questions.
I wish person had posted on THIS forum so we would know that this is at least being read. To remove violation link, it would have to have been read at least?
Hopefully at some point we will hear form them in forum. Guess responding may cause more people to jump on forum wanting this.
Auctiva.. how about some response here.

The most irritating part of this to me was fact that an announcement should have been sent so that we did not continue to use old ones. So rather than waste our time we re-did them from scratch and used from there. rather than continued multiplying the problem by continuing to do more off of the old.
I understand software changes, I do not understand keeping us in the dark.

Hello,
I just got word that our engineers are currently working to integrate the new multi-variation listing feature with our services. This is a large project and there currently is no ETA for it's arrival.
I also asked if all of the threads on this could possibly be combined.
Got this note in part back:
I will forward on your comments to have the forum updated with info about the multi-variation feature and its ETA. I will also forward on a request to have those threads combined. I am not sure if this is possible but will forward it on to moderator.
I wrote on Monday November 2nd asking if this could be forwarded to moderator and how frustrating receiving no responses in the forums is.
I received this note on Tuesday 3rd

Hello,
I have forwarded your comments on to the forum moderator but I do not expect any update in the forums on this topic for the time being, as there no new developments on that feature at this time.
I also asked why they wanted discussion if they were not going to discuss? And mentioned that the discussion thread was opened after this was already being discussed.
Tonight I got this response:

Hello,
Correct, I have no further news on this feature from our developers. We asked for discussion on this topic to judge how many users want this feature is to our customer base. However, many other factors play into the decision of adding this feature and at this time there is no further update on this feature.
I asked if this is being worked on or NOT? So we can get on with the getting on. Here is response I received today:
As I have previously stated at this time there is no update on that feature and when it will be available. Currently it is still in the decision process.
So.. am assuming first response was not totally true and find it quite disturbing that noone can tell us.
It is being worked on with no ETA. . OR is it still under discussion. Simple question. It is deceptive to lead us along only to find that it is not being worked on at all.
Auctiva.. if I am interpreting this incorrectly, please feel free to correct the information.
I feel like I am beating a dead horse here.
Anyone else want this?? If so. .we better start speaking up in forums and in emails.
Ebay is introducing more categories for this.. and as more are introduced this will become more useable for many more sellers.
If you are interested in this or may be in the future, how is the time to write support and in the forums. they need to know that we want this.

Looks like you and a handful of others are the only ones who want this. As you said, you are beating a dead horse. IF they are working on it (?), I'm sure bugging them several times a day about it isn't helping the cause. Seriously, why would they be working on something for a small bunch of people who do nothing but complain and bad mouth them all day on the boards? That sure as heck wouldn't motivate me to work any faster! lol But thats just my two cents.....
What other ebay listing services offer this now? Has anyone looked into that? I'm curious. Maybe that will light a fire under the "powers that be" and they'll get a move on.
First, auctiva are the ones who suggested we write them through support. Isn't that what it is for? If we have a question, they are not responding to, we need to go to support?
We really do not know how many people want it, do we? Auctiva told me there are requests for it? Plus, The forum threads are spread all quite a bit and I have asked they be combined. If auctiva can close a thread, surely they can combine a thread to put it all in one place. However, the discussion thread Auctiva opened was opened AFTER all of the other threads had begun so this was not a case where a new thread began after auctiva opened one on it.
My point at this point is that I was PURE lied to. People need to know if they were told it is being worked on by support that it is not. That it is being discussed. I have a huge problem with deception. You do not say you are working on a project when you later say you are NOT WORKING on IT. I would be fired from my job for that. Just come on the post and say it, then you do not have to lie about what you are doing? I am sure this happened because support only read the very last note written, not what they had already written.
I will continue to pursue this, and hope others who will use it do too. Of course, if we do not post, it will never happen it will become an inactive thread, right? If we do not write support they do not know we want it right?
Guess I am confused as to how we let them know we want it if we let forum die and do not write support? Any suggestions on letting them know if we just quite writing and quit on forums?
I am sure commerce would NEVER happened if they had not been dogged by the people who used them by forums and support requests.
I do not know what you are talking about trashing them on the boards. A handful of people? I see issues ALL over the BOARDS by all groups, especially commerce group. (and I do not blame some of them). If I have a problem, yes, I do write it, I thought that was what boards were for? but trash them, no I just tell it like it is that day.
Incidentally, the support people and the engineering team who implement these changes and two different groups. So writing support really has nothing to do with implementation of new features, other than they can pass on messages, so the more we write the more messages will be passed.
As far as what others are offering - We are not allowed on forums to mention auctiva competitors and what they do and do not offer, it is a violation of auctiva policy and I do not blame them for that policy. I am sure they know who has it and who does not though, as surely competitors keep up with each other, especially in this dog eat dog world.
We all know that most people have not even tried it. Some know NOTHING about it. I don't know what you sell so not sure if you could use it or not, but even if you can't today, you never know what you may sell next week, year? This is for sure not for the casual lister that list things around the house, it is more for people who have inventory of like items. If it were available I am sure it would be used a lot.
I know this is the wave of most online stores, Amazon uses, it, ALL department stores use it, All Shoe Stores Use It. Cosmetic companies use it. I really can't think of a website I have been to that does NOT use it. If you go online I can't think of a company that does not use it now. I am pretty sure Auctiva commerce even uses it now. Obviously, ebay put a huge amount of thought into it before they started using it and decided this was sure an asset to them as well as the seller. It helps boost sales, it is easier to navigate than looking thorough hundereds and thousands of listings for your size. It stops from bogging down sites because you have an item listed one time, it saves the companies storage space because they are doing one listing rather than 200 - 500 or more different listings. One person does not bog it down much.. but thousands and thousands, yep will sure make a difference.
I am sorry if this is not a feature you want, we all are interested in what only "we" want for ourselves. I try to see the overall picture. There are lots of things needed and some I would sure place over this that would be used more by community as a whole.
Thanks for your 2 cents worth. As all opinions count on the forums.

By "working on it", Auctiva might have a Post-It note on their bulletin board to someday get around tuit.

Lookandbuyme, I was specifically referring to the ones complaining about the variations option. Sorry to get your feathers all ruffled up.quote:I do not know what you are talking about trashing them on the boards. A handful of people? I see issues ALL over the BOARDS by all groups, especially commerce group
I am aware of the policy about referring to other companies on the boards. I was just curious! Can't someone say "yes, I did look at other companies and yes they did have this feature" ? Just making a suggestion since there's a few people who believe this is a live-or-die feature that they must have RIGHT NOW. Please forgive me.
Okay I'll get off of this thread and leave it to you folks. now go to your corners and come out swinging!!!! Ding!!!!!
Booklady.. post it on bulletin board, more like the circular file - HA!!
Dreamin. .
It takes a whole lot more than this to ruffle my feathers. . a whole lot more. However, from reading your posts I can't help but wonder if you are employed as an Auctiva Goodwill Ambassador. Especially since you do not put a store name or link on any of your listings?
It appeared as tough your note about trashing was directed at the people on this thread. If a discussion of what we want and why we can't get response since August is trashing, then so be it. I would think auctiva is much tougher than that. I have seen no trashing of Auctiva on this thread. And if people giving their opinion is considered trashing by you or others, please read lots of the other forums. this is very mild compared to some of the forums I see.
Furthermore, nobody has said this is live or die feature, I can't find that anywhere? It is feature ebay introduced and is used worldwide by most companies now that sell online. No one said RIGHT NOW, I can't seem to locate where that came from? We just would like to know the truth about it. Worked on, not worked on? This year, never, 5 years from now. Simple. The notes on forum from auctiva really state 2 different things. As did the notes I received from support.
What other ebay listing services offer this now?
This was question asked, so I answered that it is violation of policy. However, YES to answer to answer your question. However, as with all companies, including auctiva, this is large undertaking and we fully understand that.
I am sure your input is appreciated on all of the threads, after all that is what they are for. For us to disucss, for others to respond, for auctiva to respond. I believe they are also to ask questions, such as this. If it were not for the forums how would they even know we wanted this? I do not expect them to be psychic. We really do not know who is asking because of various threads and we are not privy to support requests asking about this.
Do you think the original fees would have been lowered drastically if people had not gotten on the forums and support, would commerce be around if they had not? Would we now have live edit feature if they had not requested this. Spell-check back for those who do use it? There are lots of great features that we would not have if it had not been for the people like Michelle, So-Cal Cindy, (who I have not seen post from in awhile, Granny Vixen, Covered Bridge. . And many, many others.
As far as come out swinging? Do not know where that came from. . maybe that is your philosphy and way of doing things.. just come out swinging?? I prefer a truthful discussion to swinging as swinging usually gets one nowhere.

No one said RIGHT NOW, I can't seem to locate where that came from? We just would like to know the truth about it. Worked on, not worked on? This year, never, 5 years from now. Simple. The notes on forum from auctiva really state 2 different things. As did the notes I received from support.
What other ebay listing services offer this now?

This was question asked, so I answered that it is violation of policy. However, YES to answer to answer your question. However, as with all companies, including auctiva, this is large undertaking and we fully understand that.
I am sure your input is appreciated on all of the threads, after all that is what they are for. For us to disucss, for others to respond, for auctiva to respond. I believe they are also to ask questions, such as this. If it were not for the forums how would they even know we wanted this? I do not expect them to be psychic. We really do not know who is asking because of various threads and we are not privy to support requests asking about this.
Do you think the original fees would have been lowered drastically if people had not gotten on the forums and support, would commerce be around if they had not? Would we now have live edit feature if they had not requested this. Spell-check back for those who do use it? There are lots of great features that we would not have if it had not been for the people like Michelle, So-Cal Cindy, (who I have not seen post from in awhile, Granny Vixen, Covered Bridge. . And many, many others.
As far as come out swinging? Do not know where that came from. . maybe that is your philosphy and way of doing things.. just come out swinging?? I prefer a truthful discussion to swinging as swinging usually gets one nowhere.
Thanks for your input.
