Multiple listing

yesall4u — Sun, 02 Dec 2012 20:40:14 GMT

Hi all
I have not sold more than 1 item at a time (pick up only)
Since PayPal was introduced as compulsory.

I now have a storage king unit nearly full of horded stuff I should get on eBay ASAP.

When I use to sell I had a program that I was able to set up my sales before loading to eBay. I remember it gave me the option to load minutes apart at the same time and do all the prep work before uploading.

For the life of me I can't remember it's name and I know it was free.
Could anyone please tell me the options for such a program if they still exist?
Thanks in advance 🙂

that would have been Turbo Lister

whilst you still have to offer a secure payment method, i.e. Paypal OR Paymate OR offer credit card facilities thru your own business, you can ask for CASH ON PICK UP for larger pick up only items.

there is no buyer or seller protection via Paypal for pickup only items now on eBay.

make sure when listing you choose Pick Up and NOT COD (thats an Aust Post delivery option).

goodluck

There is also one called Auctiva, but I think that costs about $10.00 a month, you get a 30 day free trial, it does seem to be quite popular, just a a thought if you wanted to compare.

may I ask why you chose to stop selling when a compulsory safe payment method was introduced? It was the single most effective thing ebay could have done to increase sales and end prices.

If you haven't sold for a long time then perhaps it was Auctiva you used as that was free but has had a monthly fee now for some time.

Turbo Lister is free but you have to pay to schedule listings although you can prepare them before hand and upload them as and when you want.

A lot has changed in the last couple of years so I hope you have kept up with all ebay announcements and policy changes since you last sold seriously.
