Just an update on experiment

I did trial on shopify built website to receive product. Started googling their ebay importer. found quite few problems.

Tried Ink frog and it has favorable reviews for inventory control – syncing ebay and shopify but i was in contact with shopify support and also ink frog. Shopify support admitted their imorter had diddiculties. Ink Frogs support said it could maintain syn beteen stors but it could not do the inital load. Thst is where Shopify was week

So i canceled my shopify acct and also ink frog – didnt want to jeoparidize my ebay store.

Last year had loaded maybe 900 used hats into volusion store i only sold one hat. I had google analytics tracking it. but was getting no traffic. Maybe 500-600 hits to website in all the months i had it open.

I also called volusion since i had experience building store there but they had no ebay importer

Remember – i am experimenting. I have been narrowing down my ebay store to mostly baseball caps. that is working for me and have expanded it to postcards since i listened to spinache eater. so couple of days ago i found this website and am listing my postcards. on my ebay store and also her. I have made no sales yet curious to see if it sync inventory correctly. It did pull all my inventory properly. I have watched as i am listing in ebay the other store is updated quickly within minutes. I will post more as i know again experiment
Everone have a happy new year

The only thing they would tell me was, my customer wanted 6 of my listings, they did not at the time offer combined shipping. I deleted my listings, than created a new listing of all six hats and then processed them thru global shipping. That’s all they would tell me Been a customer since 2008. Didn’t seem to matter I came back up maybe 3-4 months ago. Upon googling it I wondered also if my volums were very low so I might not of been abig loss to them.

But they would not budge I contacted them many times

This is all info they would give me –

But I was never contacted of any issues till it was shut down

Thanks for everyones thoughts

I also went on vacation to england for two weeks, put store on vacation

I was a above standard rating when we left then shut down when we got back.

I found ink frog it will back up listings, 30 month, had volusion store but they cannot importfrom ebay
but opened volusion store for six months while i was out only made one sale. So when ebay said i could return jumped on it.

I will look at shopify, just want to find something that works, i dont want to jeoparidize my ebay acct trying to experiment.

Starting a new sight requires time to get out of google sandbox, i never did in the six months i was out, from scavenger life i will now also adjust my handling time to match vacation time

Thanks

I was tryng to sell about 6-8 hats in Austrailia they could not combine shipping so i deleted them and made a lot of them then custormer bought them thru ebay global shipping program.

my store was shut down all communication with ebay was i was not the type of seller they wanted – so closd my store and would not let me access my listings – six months later i started gettin emails why i wasnt selling more

so i reopened and walking softly but when they shut me down had about 900 listings, now i am at 3500

had to start from scratch
