Bulk product uploader request

[gcr]

Is there any plans to bring out a bulk product uploader with ilance?
Similar to "the other auction site:eek:" that uses TurboLister.

Yes there is. It's currently in the works. There is no ETA at this time. Basically, it will work by allowing batch upload of auction listings. The difference will be insertion fees generated as one primary invoice vs. multiple fees for each bulk item.

Just after items have been uploaded, item titles will be visible on the marketplace for that user with a checkbox beside each uploaded listing. The choice to upload a photo will be available. Additionally, instant payment will be an option to allow these users to quickly pay the fee for listing all items uploaded.

We're looking into providing a wide number of bulk uploading formats to support on going api development. For example, XML, CSV, TSV will be supported.

Ahhh yes, just what the doctor ordered!

So I may not need to pay developers to do this for me?

Will it be a desktop based program similar to TurboLister that holds all your listings within the program files?

A standalone application where you can either create new, duplicate, or import listings.

Updates category structures, pricing, and any other listing variable directly from the site, or as an auto update similarly to TurboLister.

And will it allow for importing CSV or more to the point TurboLister files?

This is where sellers really love these bulk listers, banging in hundreds and thousands of their listings they exported from TL...
