Google Base upload feeds

[Deni831]

Hi!
I'm sure this has probably been asked before, but I have not been able to find it. Does an Auction with a 'Buy it Now' option count for the automatic upload? How often is the Google Base data feed updated? Also, where would I go in my account to make sure I have not opted out of the automatic uploads? Still learning the ropes here!
Thanks for the help!

Yes.

How often is the Google Base data feed updated?

Eligible items are uploaded as they are listed and appear within a couple of hours. Have not been able to get an answer from eBid regarding refreshing items older than 31 days.

Also, where would I go in my account to make sure I have not opted out of the automatic uploads?

My eBid > My Defaults (http://us.ebid.net/perl/account.cgi?...-user-defaults) under General Defaults.

I think you may need to update.
I put up a few bits the other day, one was on a 3 day repost and another on a 5 day, both came up in google shopping a few hours later. Not sure what the criteria is now.

Sorry, which bit do you think is wrong?

Thank you everyone for the info. I think I understand it now. I'll take some time to update my listings and add some new ones as well!
Thanks again!!

I thought they had changed it to within a few hours of an item being listed and not on set days and time anymore.

Not quite so. All items with a run until sold will go to Google Shopping and like all others, will be active for 30 days. At that time, eBid is supposed to resend and reactivate for another 31 days.

What Google was talking about is items that have been floating around from their one at a time section from before May 09. They are attempting to clean up the listings on shopping.
