New Accounts - Not Allowed Bulk Listing From 3rd Party Website (Auctiva)

[WestHammer]

Hi, started a new stealth account this week, and have done everything right. But I get this error message when trying to list.

To help new private sellers like you get used to selling and delivering the level of customer service you need to succeed, we do not offer bulk editing and listing tools to new private sellers. Since you are new to selling in the UK, you will not be able to use a bulk editing / listing tool at this time. When 90 days have passed after your first sale and you have 10 or more feedback points as a seller (feedback points as a buyer do not count in this case), you will automatically be able to use bulk edit / listing tools. In the meantime, please use the Sell Your Item form or Easy Lister to list your items.

Is this something that has just been implemented?

Is it going to be safe to upload pics from my PC (different user accounts) to Turbo Lister / Easy Lister?

Cheers for any help.

The restriction on bulk listing tools with new accounts has been in place for a few months now.

Best not to use old photos if that is what you are planning to do. Clear the EXIF data from new photos as well (BatchPurifier Lite or any decent photo editing software).

It is not recommended to use any e8ay software such as Turbo Lister or Blackthorne. Good luck trying to clean up your registry after TL has been in there. Besides, TL is a truly dire piece of software

I deal in photos, so usually I scan the photos and then upload them via Auctiva.

Do scanned copies of photos still carry exif information that can link accounts?

EXIF is camera information so no you don't need to worry about that. If you scan a photograph it won't have any.
