What you'll end up with
Stashery linked to your eBay seller account. Settings › eBay will show a Connected badge and "Connected as" your eBay username, and the eBay-powered features — import, publish, sync, sold-price comps — will switch on.
You only do this once. If Stashery ever needs a new permission from eBay (it happens when we add a feature), Settings will ask you to Reconnect — same steps, thirty seconds.
Steps
- Sign in to Stashery and open Settings from the menu under your name, then eBay (top right on the website; under More in the app).
- Press Connect.
- eBay opens and asks you to sign in to eBay. Use the account you sell from, not a buying-only account.
- eBay shows a list of what Stashery is asking to do — read your listings, create and edit listings, read your sales and traffic. Press Agree.
- You land back on Settings › eBay. It now says eBay account connected. and shows Connected with your eBay username.
What you'll see
Settings › eBay also has a Ready to sell card: whether your account has opted in to eBay business policies, has payment, returns and postage policies, and a dispatch location. If anything is missing, the Selling setup wizard (Finish selling setup) offers to create them for you — it asks you for the postage price you charge and shows you every number before it saves anything. When everything is in place the badge reads Connected · ready to sell.
Stashery remembers that readiness for your account, so you don't have to open the eBay page to check it: an amber dot beside eBay in the Settings menu means something there needs attention.
If something goes wrong
- eBay says "Sign in" but nothing happens, or you land on an error page.
- Make sure you started from
stashery.wyco-digital.comand not a bookmark to an older address — the return trip from eBay only works from the real address. - You pressed Decline on eBay.
- From v0.8.0 Settings tells you so and offers Connect again; before that you land on Settings with no message — just press Connect again.
- It still says "Not connected" after you agreed.
- Refresh the page once. If it still isn't connected, disconnect (if the button is there) and try again; the second attempt nearly always works.
- It says "Action needed".
- The connection has expired or Stashery needs a new permission. Press Reconnect and agree again — nothing is lost.
- You connected the wrong eBay account.
- Press Disconnect, then Connect again and sign in to the right one when eBay asks.
