Try as I might I cannot figure out how to save my eBay listings as Vendio Store items.
Do I have to relist each item seperately in my Vendio Store?

Hello Rob,

Thank you for writing. To convert your eBay listings into Vendio Store listings, please follow the steps below.

1. If the listings were not created in Vendio, and do not exist in your Vendio Sales Manager account, you will need to import them. You may use the "Import" tool in Sales Manager to do this (note that Import is intended for one-time use.) You will find the Import tool under the "Import/Track" link in the left navigation bar. Before running the import, please be sure that your eBay ID information is entered correctly on our site, as your listings will not import if this information is not up to date.

2. Once your items are imported, to convert active listings to Vendio Store items, follow these steps:

- Click the 'Copy' button next to the listing (this will copy the listing to your Pending file.)
- Click the title of the copied item in the pending listings section (you may need to click the 'All Pending' link in the lefthand navigation bar to display all items.) You will now be on the Create/Edit Listing page.
- At the bottom of the page, you will see Vendio Store options. Simply fill out the correct options for your Vendio store and SAVE. You do NOT need to LAUNCH in order for it to appear on your Vendio Store. Simply saving the item will create an inventory item that will serve as your Store listing.
- Once the item is saved, you will find it in your Sales Manager Inventory, where you will be able to continually manage the item status and information.

3. For items that have closed, follow these steps:

- Select the closed items (again, you may need to click the 'All Closed' link in the lefthand navigation bar to display all items.)
- Click the 'Resubmit' button.
- Individually, click the 'Edit' link next to each item, and fill out Vendio Store options and SAVE. Once again, it is NOT necessary to launch the items. Once you've saved each item, it will appear in your Sales Manager Inventory and can be managed from there.

I hope this helps - please let us know if you need further clarification.

Best regards,

Diana

Diana I tried to do this but got the following error:
--------------
Error

The import service cannot be used. See below for further information.

Your Vendio Sales Manager is inactive. It is time to choose a plan in order to continue using the service. We have many plans to choose from that fit your selling style. Click the Choose a Plan button to go to our plan selection page. Then you can get back to enjoying the benefits of using Vendio Sales Manager:

I do not want sales manager, I just want to open a vendio store.

How do I import my ebay store listings into a vendio store?

Found out how to do this - you have to activate sales manager. You can activate it on the "pay-as-you-go" plan, and that way you aren't charged the $39.95 per month.

TI tried your suggestion and still can't import eBay listings to my Vendio Store. Please update your instructions above or check my settings to find out why I can't do that. I want to take advantage of the FROOGLE and Shopzilla feeds for my Vendio Store items. If not items are in store, I can't benefit from this feeds feature.
