Is there no shopping cart or am I just plum stupid?

[thecardattic]

Hi All,

I am a seller on Ebid and saw some things I wanted to buy but I do not see a shopping cart to add to and be able to buy and/or edit multiple items. What in the heck am I missing? If there isn't one, could this be contributing to getting so few orders? Another seller friend in my category, trading cards just had a potential customer ask where is their shopping cart (new to Ebid potential buyer) and we have no clue as to the answer, she cannot find one either.....Help Please! Thank you! John @ thecardattic

Rats, not the response I hoped for but I definitely appreciate you taking the time so that we know that now, thanks!

No need for a shopping cart as each seller sets their own payment preferences.

You can have a sort of mini cart by using 'RIP'. There is a limit of 10 items a go though.

See: https://www.ebid.net/uk/help/selling-on-ebid/#faq-62

You can have a different kind of a shopping cart by enabling Multi-item Checkout in My Defaults. A numbers of my buyers use this.

Good point. I had forgotten about that. Probably the better option for things such as postcards, stamps and that ilk.

Both methods require the seller to be switched on to their market and make settings accordingly. The OP's original point was from their view as a buyer, as such not something they can control apart from make the seller aware.

P.S. I couldn't find MIC covered on the help page for selling. Probably ought to be.

​If I'm buying a lot of items from one seller I usually stick them on my watch list first then I can sort out the items I really want after I've finished browsing in the seller's shop.

I just had another potential customer ask how to buy multiple items at once for just one shipping charge, I have multi item allowed in my defaults but I have no idea how to tell them to actually buy multiple items, smh help please

Whoops .....
I goofed and was trying to see if I could get multiples and I have in my purchase (AND CANNOT DELETE)
one card (2019-20 Panini Illusions #10 Terrence Ross MAGIC [195803941])

Sorry, I didn't want to purchase this card, but I was seeing why I can't buy multiples.

Sorry..... I don't know how to delete this "fake purchase".

Yeah.... Leave it to a blonde.

I was looking through my account and what I noticed :

Under :
My eBid
My Defaults
Scroll down and there is place to "Enable Multi Item Checkout".
I also don't have immediate payment which I see that you do and that's how I got stuck with a purchase when testing the waters.

I can't see anywhere that you can delete a purchase (that is not paid for and don't want to pay for)

** Can enabling the multi item checkout and immediate payment ?

@thecardattic
Sorry for that test purchase.
Can you see a way to delete the sale and relist the item.
