Hi there, I have been listing teddy bears under the same category, tonight (Russ bears), and it's been going smoothly until suddenly the option to calculate shipping through Trademe, when setting up the auctions, has just vanished. I have have been doing everything the same and listing them under the same category so I don't know what has happened. I have many to list and don't want to go the long way round to edit any new listings to say that shipping will be calculated after the auction ends because I get comments still asking how much shipping with be and the whole process before, during and after the sale is so much longer! I'd like the shipping calculator to be working for me again, as it has been tonight, and for my buyers to be able to use Ping. Please help :) Thank you :)

Hello Vicky. If I were you I would look into My Products. The free listing tool Trade Me provides. After a (very small) initial learning curve it will be a real timesaver for you. You can create a new listing on a single page, then duplicate and edit any details needed for the next auction. So photo, parts of the title, and description if necessary. There are shipping templates you can use. It will also automate all your relisting and Fixed Price offers if you do those. Check it out.

Yes, anyone can use My Products. It runs in the background. You can think of it like a separate website if it helps. Once you add it it will always be there, but if you find you don't like it you don't have to use it.
