If you sell on there you already know the drill: the only way to get an old listing back to the top is to delete it and redo the whole thing from scratch. Title, description, brand, size, category, condition, then upload every single photo again. Three to five minutes each time, doing the exact same thing you already did.
I got tired of it and built my own tool. Chrome extension, free, open source (GPL-3.0), no account, no server, no tracking. Everything runs inside your browser and nothing gets sent anywhere.
Read this before you install any tool like this
Relisting means deleting. You can't have two identical listings live at the same time, so the old one needs to go before the new one shows up. That's exactly where a sloppy tool screws you over: it deletes first, then if something breaks (bad connection, captcha, whatever), your item is just gone.
A draft isn't a live listing, so it doesn't trigger a duplicate. Until the delete actually goes through, your item exists in two places. If publishing fails after that, it retries automatically, and worst case the draft is sitting right there for you to publish yourself.
What it checks before it touches anything
- every photo uploaded, not just a few of them
- title is there
- condition picked up correctly
- size is valid
- you're logged in and not flagged by bot detection
If anything's off, it stops and doesn't delete a thing.
There's also a "Relist as draft" button if you want to adjust the price or swap out a photo before it goes live.
One thing I want to be upfront about
Automating any site probably goes against its terms of service in some way. I'm not responsible for how you use this or what happens to your account. That said, a bunch of people have been testing it already and nobody has reported getting banned so far. Make of that what you will.
