WHAT IS THE OPINION OF THE CURRENT LISTING TOOL?

SLOW?  CONFUSING?

Re: Current listing tool

Been using it a couple years now and don't find it much different using it then the other listing tools.

Just like anything new, it takes a little bit to get used to the change.

Have a great day.

68% prefer the new tool.  10% efficiency in listing time.  Nuff said.

Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad.

Moving pictures from my desktop to the form is the only good part about it.

The Best Offer is very difficult.

and Shipping for those of us who ship internationally is a mess.

I've had no issues with it. I find posting to be somewhat quicker for myself. Just takes some getting used to as all changes do....

Re: Current listing tool

68% was a statistic that ebay put out so it is not even close to legitimate.   68% of what? new selling accounts?- they have no idea what the classic tool offered. 68% of sellers that are only occasional sellers? the same statistic can be argued on both sides..... anyway the new tool is slower to use and confusing as well since the features and options are not laid out clearly in front of you - they are in popup boxes out of sight and out of mind

Re: Current listing tool

I think it works pretty good

the biggest problem I had was the item specifics not sticking but as long as you have a check mark next to them then they will stick after you have typed in the name brand.

its every bit as fast as the last tool

I use one basic template for watch auctions and its really a piece of cake

Re: Current listing tool

It takes longer to edit photos.  More clicks.  Sometimes, the UPC number does not go in even though it's correct. I list a lot of hot wheels and I go through this delay on 50% of them. So I now list them w/o the UPC number.

If I write the color of the item, I don't like clicking the + .  Once a seller fills in the blank with the color or brand, the system should accept it once seller hits ENTER.  It's dumb to click on the + sign and then hit enter.

Re: Current listing tool

It's definitely slower, especially if you're starting a listing "from scratch".  -Doing "sell similar" from a previous listing of the same item category isn't too bad, except  I do find something about the appearance/layout makes it harder to "catch" all the item specifics that need changing.  I just had a shopper write to me asking why a listing says the jewelry stones are green when the ones in the photos look black. -That was because I did 'sell similar' and didn't notice that I.S. was completed (wrongly, for the new item).  The old listing tool showed ONLY the I.S.'s that you completed in the item listing being used to sell similar, so it was very easy to scroll down and see which ones needed changing.  
Also the new listing tool doesn't have the 'magic wand' for photos, which I LOVED.

Wicked quick.  Building Templates from existing listing is snappy.  Building listings from Templates is very easy.  Repetitive tasks mostly eliminated, "Description" box pretty much ignored, Clickety Click it all into the Item Specifics and SEND IT!

68% of polled, responding sellers.  Nearly 30% of sellers were invited to provide feedback. 18% of active sellers responded.  Random distribution- long time and newer active sellers.

Re: Current listing tool

Has anyone ever actually used a timer to see how long the tea stays hot in the tea cup? And is the country of origin ever different from the country it was made in? How about warranties? I sell used items none of which have ever had a warranty. There are alot of really dumb questions to answer.
