Combine the same item listed on more than one channel
If you were already selling on eBay, Depop, Vinted, Shopify (and so on) before you joined FLUF, the same physical item often shows up as a separate row for each channel. This guide shows you how to bring those copies together into one listing so FLUF treats them as the single item they really are.
Combining is always safe to try and always reversible — your live marketplace listings are never edited, delisted or sold by this.
What "combining" does
Once two or more listings are combined into one:
- They show as a single row on your Listings page, with a pill for each channel it's on.
- A sale on any channel automatically marks it sold on the others, so you don't double-sell.
- Editing it once pushes the change to every channel.
- You can split them back apart at any time (see "Undoing" below).
It does not touch your actual listings on eBay, Depop, Vinted, etc. Nothing is relisted, edited or removed on the marketplace.
Option 1 — You can see the copies (quickest)
Best when you can spot the duplicates yourself on the Listings page.
- Go to your Listings page.
- Tick the box on each row that is the same physical item (the eBay one, the Depop one, the Vinted one…).
- Open the Actions menu and choose Combine.
- A box confirms which listing will be kept as the main one — press Combine.
That's it — those rows fold into one.
Option 2 — You have lots, or aren't sure where they are
Best when you sell the same stock across several channels and don't want to hunt row by row.
- On your Listings page, open the Data menu (top of the page) and choose Find & combine duplicates.
- Tick the channels you already sell the same items on, then press Start Scan.
- FLUF refreshes those channels and then shows you each set that looks like the same item, with photos so you can check at a glance. Click any photo to see it full size.
- For each set: press Combine if it's the same item, or Not the same to skip it. If you're confident, Combine all confident does the clearly-matching ones in one go.
The matches are grouped by how sure we are — exact code matches first, look-alikes after — so you can move quickly through the confident ones and take more care with the rest.
Seeing what's combined, and undoing it
Any combined item shows a "Linked" badge on its Listings row. Click it to see every channel listing that was joined, when, and whether you did it or FLUF matched it for you.
If something was combined that shouldn't have been, click Unlink all on that badge — the listings split straight back into separate rows. Your marketplace listings stay exactly as they were, and FLUF won't quietly re-combine anything you've pulled apart (though you can always combine it again yourself).
Good to know
- You can combine up to 50 listings in one go.
- At least one listing in a set needs to already exist in FLUF — if everything is brand new from a channel, give it a few minutes (or use Refresh on the channel) and try again.
- If a scan says it can't find your other channel's listings yet, refresh that channel first, then run the scan again.
