eBay owns your listing data; Flippd owns your business data. The sync only ever writes listing fields onto linked items — everything you track privately in Flippd is off-limits.
What Sync Updates on a Linked Item
Title and photos
List price and quantity
Status changes (Listed → Sold) with the sale date
Sale amount — taken from the real eBay order, plus actual selling fees and shipping label costs for recent sales and everything going forward (see How much eBay history does Flippd import?)
The eBay listing link itself
What Sync NEVER Touches
Cost of goods
Storage location
Barcode
Source (where you bought the item)
Stock number, custom fields, and notes
Acquisition date and purchase details
If an eBay listing is missing a value (for example, a fetch hiccup returns no photos), the sync keeps your existing value rather than blanking it.
Good to Know
The sync is one-way: Flippd reads from eBay and never creates, edits, or ends listings in your eBay store.
On synced eBay sales, the fee and shipping-cost fields are kept in line with eBay's actual records, so a manual edit to those two fields will be corrected back on a later sync. If a synced fee looks wrong, contact support from the ? Help icon in the header instead.
Every field the sync changes is recorded in the item's Change History > Integrations tab, so you can always see exactly what an import did.
You control ongoing syncing from the integration's settings (new listings, price changes, sales changes can each be toggled).
