1. When the listings are imported from ebay, does this close the ebay items on ebay or will the items be listed on both ebay and gsb?

2. If the answer is both, then if someone buys an item on ebay will the gsb listing also close, and vice versa?

3. Most of my listings are BIN's with Best Offer. Will your software import the Best Offer items and leave the Best Offer option in place?

4. Most of my listings include large scans, using html from Photobucket, in the description area. Will these scans transfer properly?

5. Do your stores have the option to temporarily close for a week or two when someone is on vacation?

6. Can gsb listings be imported to ebay?

Sorry about all of the questions, but I have 600 items in my ebay store and I plan on adding several hundred more in the next couple of months, so I don't want to make any changes that will cause a lot of additional work for me. When I get some time I will experiment with a few items and see how it goes.

Thanks much! Rick
Just to follow up on Leon's correct answers with a bit more detail where warranted:

2) There are two parts to the GSB system - one is an import from eBay and the second is eBay Sync. eBay Sync is the tool we developed to help keep your fixed price listings current between the two and help make sure nothign is double sold. You can import your fixed price listings and not enable eBay Sync if you desire.

3. Yes - eBay listings with Best Offer enabled will come over with the ability to accept cash offers.

4. We do bring over the HTML descriptions from eBay. For security reasons, we strip out scripts, but we have tested with many different kinds of listings, including those created by BlackThorne and TurboLister and the descriptiosn come across well. You can see JustCollect's GSB listings for an example of how a very heavy HTML listing comes over with the tool.

5. We have the ability to put your store on vacation, which will add a prominent note to your listings letting folks know you are away and probably won't be able to respond to questions or ship anything.

6. No.

One other feature to note, because of the huge cost savings on GSB, we've also built in the ability to auto-discount your listings, should you chose to do so, during the import.

Thanks!
