What about if the listing already had sales on it?
I know once a listing with Best Offers gets a sale, you can’t turn off Best Offer unless you end the listing and restart.
Maybe the opposite is true?

This is along the same lines as eBay’s markdown manager. We put a bunch of our items “On Sale” and didn’t realize Sixbit was refreshing the lower price as the new Fixed Price.. Oh Boy,, We’re still fixing listings.
We’ve since learned that we have to export prices via Sixbit CSV file before running a sale with Markdown Manager, but we won’t do that.. Too dangerous to be exporting & importing CSV files all the time..

I just had a user report that when doing batch changes to auto-accept prices, they are completing successfully, but the when opening the listing in Sixbit the vales are set to $0.00.. Not the values he entered.
Figured I should update Sixbit while the users are at lunch.. Hopefully that will do it the trick..

——- UPDATE ——-
Updating to latest Sixbit Beta did not fix our issue

I’m curious if this was resolved too..
We recently noticed we have many duplicate item #’s on listings that have the same internal SKU, but are entirely different listings/titles etc. which we do purposely. but we don’t intentionally create items with same item ID.. These also show Submitted by Administrator, which nobody uses.

Check the attached screenshots.. Hope it helps.

It is a mess.. Currently ended all sales on ebay, which is disappointing cuz we were seeing improved rankings in the search results with sales. Now need to go thru thousands of listings and check and correct prices.. ugh.

ok,, well.. Admittedly, we’re Markdown Manager rookies. So after running sales on thousands of items for a few months, we discovered that Sixbit was refreshing and fixing the Sale Price as the Fixed price. And in conjunction with “Out of Stock Control”, when those items went to Out of Stock, and were later relisted (Stock added) at what we assumed was the original Fixed price.. Turned out we have many items under priced and then ebay turns around and places those items on sale “again”, discounting the On sale price again!.
It would be nice if we knew that ahead of time, or that Sixbit could somehow understand the difference between a Markdown Manager price and a fixed price.
Add to the fact that Markdown Manager is bulky, it would be great if Sixbit could manage and keep track of sale prices within the app.

We have since learned we can export those Fixed Prices and later re-import them, but boy.. that’s dangerous and tedious.

Willing to take suggestions on how to work (manage) MM..

Turns out, this listing was updated via a CSV import before sending to eBay.
Steve L. @ SB Support told us …..
Add External Item ID into your CSV file to update the variations in SixBit via CSV. If you don’t have that on your items you can define it in the CSV and set it on each variation. So add in the external item id column and for variation 1 set it to 1 on all the variations for that item, for variation item 2 set it to 2 and so on and so forth. This will give SixBit the information to know which variation it is updating and not send a call for each separate variation SKU.

We’ll try that next time we do a CSV import for a variation.

Just ran across this and although we’re not interested in Wal-Mart, We’ve starting selling our products on Newegg (not just computers anymore) recently and got off to a great start. Hoping it becomes as popular as Amazon & Ebay..

I’ll give this a go.. starting from beginning
#1. Click on the Sell Items tab, then on the ribbon at the top there should be a button/tab that says “Import” open that up and see your options. .I believe you’ll need to export a CSV file from Turbo Lister first, in case you haven’t done that yet..
#2 I never seen/used a calendar in Sixbit so not sure what you’re asking there.. But did you authorize ebay token thru the Bubble > Manage > Profile ?
#3 Have you tried listing immediately already? I would make sure listings go up normally before messing with schedules.
#4 I don’t use Esty.. sorry..

[Darin Zygner]

Is that an Amazon item? Don’t think you can change those…

[Darin Zygner]

You’ll want to setup a VPN connection from client to server. Or… Moe posted about a Remote App Tool which sounds like he had success with. http://www.kimknight.net/remoteapptool

[Darin Zygner]

Sounds like he’s asking if renting or paying for a hosted server offered from a site similar to Liquidweb.com, is it viable to run Sixbit on said server.. I would say yes!

[Darin Zygner]

Are the remote users logging into Sixbit with their own user names? I guessing they’re all tied to a single user name? Just curious.
