I have many items listed but would like to advertise or promote numerous amount of options or upgrades. I have many types Golf Grips, Steel and Graphite golf shafts available that I would like to promote as upgrades but I do not want to include them in every item I'm selling. Any suggestions?

I'm thinking of putting them out as an item and just create a long list with prices next to them.
Example
True Temper shafts upgrade for $6.00 each.
Golf Pride Grips upgrade for $1.50 each

Can I post this somewhere on the home page?

Thank you KangasGolf

You cannot post a listing for advertisement or info or whatever. Every product page should contain a product you are selling (please see eCrater's terms page).

I'm not sure if an upgrade can be a listing. Maybe BigTall or someone else who knows can enlighten us.

Make one listing for the plain club and another listing for the club with the upgrade i.e.

golf club $20.00
golf club with upgraded steel shaft $25.00
etc.

Each listing would be different and not break any rules. If you list just upgrades as an item, you are going to run into deep doo-doo with confused buyers who may find your upgrades via Google but not figure out how to find the basic club.

Does this make sense?

Since an option/upgrade is NOT an item for sale it can NOT be listed.

As viewfinders says - you can do a listing for the product with the upgrade and without the upgrade.

This won't work because how will that ever be added to the shopping cart price? It can't be.

I like the one idea. I could sell the shafts as singles or an upgrades. Can I give a price reduction if a customer buys a set of irans and the upgrade shafts?

the SYSTEM can't do it.

And you have to be careful because the terms don't allow for upgrades.

Ok,
Sounds like everything has to be sold as an individual item...

Should we all suggest the discount option to Ecrater? It will help us to increase the sales amount and provide the promotion to buyers.

If you want to suggest something please post it in the Suggestions section. eCrater reads that regularly. (May or may not implement, but do read.)
