Multiple listings question

I have a bunch of widgets that I have purchased from various sources for various prices.   So, I have a big listing (multiple variation) with lots of them listed now at pretty low prices because I bought them at a low price.  

 

I just bought another batch of widgets and I have some duplicates of the ones that I have previously listed but I need to list them at a higher price to reflect the higher price paid.

 

what can I do

 

1) wait until my other ones sell at a lower price and then change the price to reflect the new supplier cost (this could take awhile).

2. can I create a new variation listing (on another ID) with these higher priced widgets?  Someone might buy them if they are buying a large group of widgets and get a shipping discount. 

3. list my cheap ones at auction to get rid of them and replace them in my FP listing with the higher priced listings?

4. Raise the FP listing on all of the widgets to reflect the new supplier price (might result in fewer sales.....)

 

My goal is to have as many widgets listed as possible all the time, but I don't want to list at the rock bottom price yet.....Any other suggestions?

If the items are truly duplicates, then just sell them for the same price. Your profit on one will be higher than on the other.   This will probably just require changing the quantity and price on the existing listing.

 

You cannot do option 2, listing the same widget in two different listings, even if they are different prices and if they are variation listings.

I have a new old stock aircraft part, it is marked 23 bucks.

Today it's price is a grand.

Bump up your prices to reflect the new cost.
