Sorry for the late response, Didn't realize anyone had responded to my question. I have tried it with and without starting from sell similar, but in general I'm referring to a part that isn't currently in eBay catalog. (Not using sell similar.) I usually start from create a new listing and then search by model number and / or upc number to see if the part is in the catalog. What I'm after is the ability to download something like a CSV file from an existing listing, make any edits in a spreadsheet program, and upload that vehicle list to a new listing.
Sometimes I get parts that only fit twenty or so vehicles, and sometimes its the the opposite and the part will fit thousands of different models. I buy surplus and overstock by the pallet. I rarely get more than a few of the same auto part. Just can't justify the hours it would take to manually enter year, make, model, a few hundred times for a part I might make $3-$5 on. Using an outside vendor or spending the hours might make sense if I had thousands of the same part.
It just gets under my skin that there is no obvious way to copy and paste vehicle fitment. Even just a CSV file upload would work. I thought this could be solved by picking a part with the correct fitment from the catalog and changing the item specifics. (brand / model). However it doesn't work. If you make any changes to a part picked out of the catalog ,eBay strips out all the other relevant information from the listing including the vehicle fitment list.
