NEED ASSISTANCE WITH FILE EXCHANGE!

Can anyone give me any tips or how-to's or advice on how I can upload all of my current Amazon listings

to the ebay format? I converted all the Amazon listings to excel but still ebay will not accept them?

ANY info will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

How many listings are you trying to transfer?

 

A spreadsheet of items from another venue will need to be moved to an eBay format. That means you may need to relabel some of the columns to match eBay's File Exchange headings.  You may also need to add new headings for the item specifics table that appears within listings and will need to add shipping and returns columns.

First, download a basic template from File Exchange and compare the column headings.

If you download the Excel format instead of the CSV format, there will be instructions included for each column.

 

Next, determine what different item categories are represented by your items and download an Item Specifics Category template for each of those categories. The headings in an Item Specifics template all start with C: (for custom).

 

If your items are brand new with UPC or ISBN codes, you may be able to use those codes within your basic template and forego the item specifics, as long as eBay already has those items in its catalog.
