Anyway to sort active listings by if best offer is on or off?

Hi,

I'm not sure if I just can't find it, or if it's not possible, but is there a way I can search all my active listings by whether I have best offer turned on or off?

I lowered prices on several of my listings in the past few weeks, but no longer want to allow offers on the much lower priced items. Since I was editing the prices from my listings page, it wasn't super simple to turn off best offers one by one. I figured I could just sort my listings by ones with best offers turned on, use the bulk editor, and turn off best offers on the items I wanted to.

 

Is there a way to do this? I can't figure it out and going through 45K+ listings 200 at a time is extremely tedious. Even the 2,000 item bulk editor is having major issues with server errors on 400-500 items at a time so that's not really an option either.


Thanks for any help.

Go to your Active Listings page in seller hub. Click on the bar "all formats". A drop down will appear with "Fixed price without best offer". I do not have any listings with best offer activated so I can not be sure but it would seem that if you have some with offers then I would assume a second line "Fixed price with best offer" should also appear. In any event, at least you will know which ones do not have it activated and you can work backwards from there.

 

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the response!

I don't see "all formats" anywhere. I see "All filters" and a few others. Is it this page you were referring to?

Sorry if I just misunderstood and ended up on the wrong part of active listings. Under pricing format I can see auctions, and buy it now, but no option to sort by buy it now with best offer.

You have to go to Seller Hub  the URL is

https://www.ebay.com/sh/lst/active

It should look like this.

Weird, we have completely different views for our seller hub. I'm in seller hub as well. Here's the full shot:

Thank you for trying to help anyway!

Well, that is odd. Can't imagine why they would have different versions.

Hi @erikscardsandgames . eBay is rolling out a new version of seller hub navigation. Please submit comments through the "comments" link next to the blue "create listing" button to let them know what you think. There is a longer discussion about it found through the link in my signature below.

 

To answer your direct question: the new navigation does not include the same filters as the old version.

 

However since @richard1rst still has the old version, he can pull up the "fixed price without best offer" link and copy/paste it here for you to bookmark and use for as long as it works.

You can try searching your active listings like a buyer does, and you can turn on a filter for Best Offer that way.

 

Here's a link to your items with best offer; I see 440 of them.

At this time, I have the old version of the active listings page and can search (filter) for listings with best offers turned on.

 

Here is the link I copied from my page. I hope it will work for you

I think they were looking for ones that don't currently have Best Offer enabled, which would be this link instead:

Thank you for providing the additional link.

 

I guess I misunderstood the OP when they said, "I figured I could just sort my listings by ones with best offers turned on, use the bulk editor, and turn off best offers on the items I wanted to."

 You guys are all fantastic! Thanks so much! I was looking for the items with best offers turned on, but both of those links will be super helpful until they add the filter to the new layout. They both worked great.

I really appreciate all the help!!

Great! Thank you for letting us know the links still work (for now anyway) even when the seller has been moved to the new design page.

Nah, I think you were right and I was reading a different comment where that was mentioned. Either way, now they have both links!
