I'm tired of waiting for my second selling ID to be added to MP. The record keeping for two IDs with two different payment processors is a mess. If I join SixBit, can I move my listings from one ID to the ID currently using MP? Otherwise, I think I will just end them before the new year.

There's a learning curve but you can.

It's also feasible to move listings from one ID to another using the old 2 browser copy & paste method if you have a small amount of listings to do. (dependent on your tolerance for boring repetitive tasks)

Thank you. I thought about the copy & paste method (more my speed), but didn't want to deal with the photos. I don't have back-ups for them, so I guess I would have to retake them all.😕

I've been lucky with some photos in listings and found I could save image as.. others not so much and yes, had to dig up the photos from my files.

@shipscript gave me these instructions to get all the photos from your active listings. This works very well, I use it several times a year to get all my photo into neat file folders.

Using the zip archive described by @mcdougle4248 for all of your active listing photos will allow you to take your time moving your listings and will ensure you have backups.

Another alternative is to capture photos in one listing at a time as you move one listing at a time. For your purposes, it may better match your work flow. So, as you open one listing for copy/paste transfer, use this tool to capture and zip-download all photos in that one listing:

As you create the replacement listing in another window, you can upload those unzipped photos from your desktop.
