Should I used colored packing slips when shipping items?

Is it possible to revise a listing with old version of variation types without recreating

Hello. I have a number of old ebay items that had multiple variations based on card attributes and not card number. It seems like you can't just transfer the type you have to manually add one at a time. That is kind of pain frankly. So I have avoided...
