Anyone else using a 3rd party software to list items for sale and have been unable to use it for the last several weeks? It seems eBay is getting rid of anyone wanting to use their own HTML on listings. This is extremely upsetting for me because I have fell in love with my listing software for creating listings, editing listings and doing everything with ease!
Many years ago I wanted to create a website for selling cards because I was getting fed up with eBay and constant changes, high fees etc. I was told there is no chance it will be successful, people have tried before and failed miserably. Really wish I would have just went for it seeing multiple other sites succeeding today.
Anyways… just thought I would vent and see if this is affecting anyone else here and have spoke to anyone at eBay.
The HTML feature in the “new listing experience” is indeed broken - CSS classes are sometimes stripped, SVG elements don’t render correctly, etc. However, you’re still able to revert back to the “old” listing method and use the raw HTML feature that behaves as one would expect.
I have no idea how the 3rd party listing software is interacting with eBay, but at least the option to manually do it the old way is still there if you’re willing to muck about.
Not sure if this is helpful at all, but I am still able to use previously created html templates for Ebay listings (input images, bold, all that super savvy stuff). I do not use third party software that is able to do bulk listings, while considered, upkeep with normal listings has been a handful.
Since we are on the topic of third party software for ebay/bulk listing uploaders or softwares (either from ebay’s bulk or some of the various software third parties they suggest), how has this been working for other sellers, perhaps some sell other than pokemon cards? Anyways, curious to find out more, looks a bit complicated. What do you use guys
