    Default Store listing & bulk edit confusion.

    Not really sure if I am posting in the correct place but I have a few questions and yes I have read the help and info questions already. I have already have listings but have now set up my store.

    1..Do I need to list all items again for the store ?
    I have done a few so far but when using the edit feature to move items from auction to store its changing all auction items to the same as store ones ie: with no reserve.

    2..Does anyone know the pros and cons of having auction/store items at different prices ?

    3..The Brand section ..is this visible to buyers searching on ebid or should I be putting the brand in the title or will having it in the description be sufficient ?

    I had a minor panic this morning when I noticed that when an item is listed in the store it shows as duplicated in my view of listings ..is that correct ?

    Q2. Stores are just a means of organising and displaying your items. Their content is not separate from any items not placed in a store. So, if you list two of the same item with one placed in a store and one not, then they would be treated as duplicates by eBid. This means there is no answer to Q2 as it is posed based on a misunderstanding of what stores are.

    Q3. The Brand field is only used (currently) when items are uploaded to Google for Search Engine Optimisation. If you want the brand name to appear in your viewable listing then you need to include it within your listing somewhere. Either the title or description as you deem fit.

    Minor panic: Answered as for Q2.

    LOL! Glad astral got that worked out for you. I prefer Irish coffee myself.

    List items once and use the drop downs within the listings to add the listings to your store(s) or not, your choice.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,
