Can we as seller when looking at our products, increase the "this item has been viewed X times" line?
When a product has sold out, is it still able to be viewed by the public? Should I delete or cancel the listing when it has sold out?
Is there a way to make our newer listing show at the top of our management page instead of the end?
I had a person buy a plant and they are from French Polynesia. The customer just joined DG the same day they bought the plant. I figure they were just testing the system and choose me to test it. However, as I clearly state in my listing I will not ship outside the US, should I relist the plant?
Does listing here make me ineligible to organize a plant swap in a forum?
I'll try to answer a few of these--hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong on anything.
Yes, when you view your item that will increase the # of times viewed (assuming you were looking at the actual listing that buyers would see--if you were editing it in your seller management area that wouldn't count)
When products are sold out, I don't believe that they show up for everyone to see, people would only see them if there's one available. They'll still show up in your list of items in case you want to easily create a new listing for the same thing, but I don't think anyone else can see them.
For the person from French Polynesia, I would send them a dmail restating that you don't ship outside the US and are cancelling the order, then feel free to relist.
On your last question, are you talking about plant swaps, or are you talking about co-ops? Plant swaps are just people trading things and there's no reason you couldn't organize one of those. Co-ops are where there are rules against vendors organizing them...and the general rule of thumb on that is if you have to ask whether you count as a vendor, you probably do. But there are gray areas, if in doubt you could always use the "contact us" link and ask admins to weigh in.
