I'm opted in already, But I can not find out about the shipping charges to customers on express. Will the full shipping that half currently charges a buyer, be added to those buying on express, and in turn paid to us on paypal?

I saw a posting about this on the FillZ who I list with. If I start selling on Half.com through FillZ and join eBay Express through it, how will this work? Will they get all of my orders?

eBay Workshop: Half.com Listings on eBay Express - March 26

Hi everyone,

Thank you for coming to this workshop! Raj and I are looking forward to answering your questions about selling your Half.com inventory on eBay Express. Raj is with the Half.com team and I’m with the eBay Express team.

Half.com sellers can now elect to show their Half.com inventory in eBay Express. There are no additional fees for this exposure, and the transaction is managed within the existing Half and eBay selling functionality. Sellers have to opt-in from in the My Account page on Half.com.

As a limited time offer, Half.com sellers will get 50% of their eBay Express final value fee back for Half.com listings that are sold on eBay Express. More details on this promotion www.half.ebay.com/HalfonExpress.

We’ll take a minute to post some information on the following topics before taking your questions:
- how it works
- what are the fees


cheers,
Chung & Raj

Deirdre, this is posted on Half as starting at 2 PST (not 1, unless you click the link), and though I've posted a correction, some folks may think this doesn't start until then.

A LOT of questions were asked on that thread in the opes that you would have looked at them and have answers ready.

(I'm in the middle of something--cn't do much but look in.)

Will the description of our items on HDC that will appear on eBay Express be the comments section or the full description or both?

Hello,
Question; why are my BIN items not appearing on Express? Previously when we did BIN they would show up on Express but the last several items we did BIN listing have not been showing up there. We meet all of the qualifications.

Thank you,

Hello,

We're considering opting in to Ebay Express. Just want to make sure there are no initial or recurring insertion fees as on regular Ebay. Also, if Ebay Express is as great as it sounds, are there any reasons NOT to opt in? Are there any disadvantages?

Thank you!

How is opting in on EE now going to be any different in the traffic & marketing campaigns that you promised last year when you launched. I don't see many sellers saying EE rocks or look at all my sales. If anything, we're all walking around shocked when someone says they actually sold something from EE.


Strikes me that there isn't any firm commitment from you guys to stay the course of a plan. If you want sellers to invest their time & buy-in to utilizing EE, you should be equally invested in their success & not constantly changing features that change their optimization there. You say its free, but really.. you guys don't do anything for free. You want all our products there for a reason. Why can't you just be straight forward, advertise like you say you will & start disclosing the specific scenarios when a sellers items may be less optimized in EE search than others

eBay Workshop: Half.com Listings on eBay Express - March 26

Mar 26, 2007 1:10 PM
How it works

Once a Half.com seller opts into eBay Express, his/her Half.com inventory is shown on and can be purchased on eBay Express.

Half.com items that are purchased on eBay Express essentially ‘becomes’ an eBay.com transaction, and as such, is managed from My eBay on eBay.com.

This setup allows Half.com sellers to manage the additional exposure within the current (and familiar) Half and eBay selling functionality.

Some additional details:

(1) You do not need to make changes to your Half.com business
• Continue listing on Half.com as you do today.
• All sales on Half.com are processed as usual. You will be notified through Half.com and paid by direct deposit to your bank account twice each month.

(2) Your eBay Express exposure will be managed on Half.com
• When you opt-in to sell on eBay Express, your Half.com listings will show up in eBay Express. Listings may take 1 - 2 weeks before appearing in eBay Express.
• If you make any changes to your Half.com listings, the changes will be reflected automatically on eBay Express. This means any price changes, new listings, deleted listings, etc. will show up in both Half.com and eBay Express.

(3) Your eBay Express sales will be recorded in My eBay
• When a shopper purchases your Half.com listing on eBay Express, the transaction shows up in My eBay. It will not be reflected in your Half account.
• Payments for your eBay Express sales are deposited immediately into your PayPal account.
• To help you manage your inventory, your My eBay selling record, including the File Exchange tool, now has two additional fields to show where your inventory was listed and sold so you can clearly identify Half.com inventory sold on eBay Express.

Will it be possible to edit our eBay Express listings so that we can custumize them to be different than our HDC listings?
