Uploading items by CSV Batch Upload
You have only a few items to add to the sale. The easiest way is to add items using our single Upload form.
When you have your items already stored in a database and you can make an export CSV (Comma Separated File), email the CSV to us, and we will upload the items into your account.
After the items are uploaded, you have to add your images. You can upload several images to each lot.
To be able to upload your CSV,
- your file needs to be saved in text UTF-8 format and the cell preferably separated by a "|" or Unicode name "vertical bar" .
- The file should include the below fields. Prices in US$. You may choose sizes in Inches OR mm.
