On ebay.co.uk using the same listing we ship to:
UK based clients from the location A
to:
European based clients from the location B
So, when you want to sync both locations A & B with ebay particular listing, linnworks adds both stocks and send it to ebay as a total.
As such, you can end up selling to European clients with the stock = zero from the location B ...still having a lot of stock at the location A..
The solutions:
1stupid) only allow UK based clients to buy on ebay.co.uk, but that would be irrational from the financial point of view and the sales
2stupid) have two different listings (different SKUs) on ebay.co.uk ...one for UK based clients and one for European clients...is not possible as ebay.co.uk wont let you block UK based clients from buying there
3sort of good) linnworks should sync these two inventories from these two locations BY ALLOWING TEMPORARILY TO CHOOSE which location is the PRIME location for the PARTICULAR SKU.
A) for listings on ebay.co.uk the PRIME LOCATION would be A.
However, when I see that the SKU 111 is ending in the location B, I can make the location B as the PRIME location for this listing TEMPORARILY till I manage to fill the stock at the location B.
B) for listings on ebay.it (same account as for ebay.co.uk) the PRIME LOCATION would be B...never A
C) for listings on ebay.de (same account as for ebay.co.uk) the PRIME LOCATION would be B...never A
That would help to manage the stock syncing with EBAY.CO.UK/AMAZON.CO.UK somehow better than the current settings.
