Only certain dropshipper companies are banned, look at the eCrater's term or send them a message to make sure. |

This is to not only to encourage you but other newbies coming here with the same angst about listing manually.
I as well as many of the other longer term ecrater sellers have had to list everything one at a time as the ebay down/upload wasn't available to us. It is possible and I think the listings can come out better looking than those that think by using the bulk loader they can skip a bunch of work. I've never seen anything be listed through the bulk uploader that looks right.Lots of mistakes in them. If you are going to have to go back to fix everything anyhow then you may as well just list things one at a time.
That being said I have over 8000 items in inventory currently and have had over 4400 orders which means all those items were listed at one time as well. So that has been a lot of listing. The best thing you can do if possible is set up a listing template so you don't forget things, like quantity being sold with each order, color, size, weight, brand, UPC, what it is, what is special about it, etc. Once you get in a GOOD listing HABIT it really does go fast. Ecarter is actually the fastest place I have ever listed inventory of all the places I have sold on. If you are still on dial up (and some are) if you have an opportunity to get on a satellite, make that a goal that when your sales get to be so much monthly you will pay to have that installed. My listing went so much faster once we had satellite (our only way in the country to have high speed internet of any kind) it is well worth the cost and then about two years later the DISH came through with satellite for $30-40 less a month. Prior to that I had to work my listings on one of two land lines because one was always being chewed by squirrels and such. Now only one landline for our phone and the other which is a business expense since we don't get TV with it.
Anyhow, the faster you can list by good habits and good connection speed, the faster your listing will go and the more that you can have listed and the more you have listed, the higher the chances of making sales. At the point in time when I was new here, for every 1000 items I got listed I had between 1-3 more sales each week from the initial one or two every month, then every week.etc.
Many newbies come here and just think that hand listing a couple of hundred listings is impossible, but it isn't as long as you go about it the right way. Think of the internet as the ocean and a seller with 100 items listed. Those 100 items are just a micro-drop in that vast sea, so the more you have listed, the more those microdrops add up to more and more visibility. |

@Variety - Not sure why but I can't find any of your products. Is your store on hold? |

Looks like they are suspended. I couldn't find a reason just by looking at the terms and FAQ's. I wonder if they ever talked to staff about which drop shippers they can use. |
