Hi Stellar Vinyl,

It is a fairly cumbersome process, but you can accomplish this by revising your current listings via the following steps:

1) Recreate the listing in Auctiva and click "Save".
2) Once you have finished, click the "Save" button.
3) Return to your Saved Listings page, check the box next to the item, and click the "Get HTML" button.
4) Select All and copy the html in the popup window.
5) Go to the item that is active on eBay and click "Revise Item" then "Edit Description"
6) Click the "Enter Your Own HTML" tab above the description editor.
7) Delete the html that is already there and then paste the copied html in its place and save you changes.

I hope this helps=)

Hi Stellar Vinyl,

Well you actually only have to recreate the item details section of each of these listings before step 3(above), as that section includes the template, images, and description, which you will be editing in your active listings.

The other sections, marketing tools, shipping, and checkout options are all alreaady specified on the active listings, so there is no need to fill in these sections when recreating the listing in Auctiva.

Hi Rick,

If the listings are avialable on the saved listings page, he/she would be able to edit them to select a template but, I believe these listings were only imported as active listings.

Since there is no associated saved listing for which to select a template, then a new saved listing would need to be created in order to use the "Get HTML" feature to revise that listing.

I revised some of my auctions a few weeks back using the steps that Mike is describing and the process does work.

Now, though all of my listings are just using Auctiva and the process is so simple.

Am I missing something though... Why would you bother spending 2 weeks to revise 200 auctions? Auctions only last a max of 10 days, right? I'd say, let them end the way they are... Then start fresh with Auctiva if you decide you want/need to relist them.

Just my 2 cents worth...

Just as a note, you can only use this process if your store listing has never recorded a sale. Once the store listing records a sale, Ebay will only allow you to ADD to your description not revise it, so you are unable to delete the old html. I have learned this the hardway as most of my store listings are for multiple quantities and I originally setup the listings as Good Till Canceled (GTC) so once the first piece sold I am unable to revise description without ending the listing and creating a new one.
