    Default Could there be a backlash from ebay by importing my feedback?

    Hello, this is my first post & hope this is the right place to ask. I have just started to put my stuff for sale on ebid & have no feedback yet. If I import my 1000+ feedback from ebay, knowing the way they are I wondered if ebay can somehow penalise you for that? I still want to keep that account running for the time being and don't want to shoot myself in the foot.
    Thank you

    Hello

    They won't penalize you, it is a process that has been available for years.

    Don't forget that if you use Run Until Sold for your listings they remain at the back of all the other postcards. Something like 10 day listings with the buy it now price have much more exposure because they will rise to the top of the listings. You can set your listings to auto repost 10 times.

    Having a shop set up for your listings is also vital - free as well

    Thank you for the tips I really appreciate that, still finding my way around. Didn't realise a shop was free on here. Will have a look into that too. Many thanks.

    For SELLER+ accounts you can have up to 5 shops absolutely free for life. I think the bay charge £19.99 per month, every month per shop. A shop really helps a buyer to be able to navigate around your listings, it also means you can create your own categories within your shop.

    If you get stuck with anything then there are numerous people on here with a lot of knowledge who will be able to help.

    If you are serious about this, pay the lifetime fees, open five shops and keep listing!
    Madelaine

    4 shops for Cats Protection & Prospect Hospice
    My Postcard Shop
    BK Stamps for Philatelic listings
    & Yarnalong for craft patterns
    and
    Lotzabitz -anything that doesn't belong in one of the other shops.

    I used to be a big supporter of Repatoo, but no longer recommend it now it is a pay service. I wouldn't bother with it.
