I was reviewing my first attempt to upload google products. got lots
of questions, that I hope someone can help me with
A. In my settings, I am getting an error of "missing condition
values" what does this mean?
B. Also looks like I accidently uploaded twice.
1, . company name shortened -- has photos but no customer reviews
2. full company name -- no photos, but has 19 customer reviews.
Looks like this one does not show up when I do a product search, but
#1 does.
Please help me consolidate
I am due to manual upload today or tomorrow.
C. Finally, Auto upload from my site, give me an error -- illegal
line -- this is a yahoo store, I cannot change my catalog/obinfo file.
(a) this is a new required attribute -- condition;
set its value to one of new, used, or refurbished.
(b) you should have one-and-only-one file registered
and submitted to google-base; use the same exact file
for all item changes, additions, or deletions; also,
it can sometimes take 72-hours to fully process a
feed for any item changes, additions, or deletions.
a new feed means someone at google-base might need to
approve the items and website; this can take a week
or more to complete; what's your website or authorid?
(c) i would make certain the auto-upload is set to
about once-a-week or more until all the processing
issues have been resolved; catalog and objinfo files
aren't usable on google-base by default.
there are three methods to submit items from yahoo.
(1) actually, i would recommend to *stop* all auto-uploads,
delete any feed files, and try the xml-export-option in
your yahoo merchant-account preferences; google-base then
should begin to pick up your items in about a month.
(2) otherwise, you would need to translate the
catalog or objinfo file into some format that
google-base can understand.
(3) store-connector is another option -- you might
try and see how that works for you first; however,
only *one* of these three methods are allowed.
3. storeconnector, store connection fails message has been coming on
for last week ... have no idea how to fix -- used the yahoo id
[email address], then it is the password, not the security key, right?
tried both with and without yahoo.com
2. tried auto load objinfo.xml, google base did not recognize line 1
-- since I cannot do anything with that file, guess that method will
not work for me -- right?
1. good old manual way, thanks for the "conditions" will add. So
much thanks for the product_types link, I had used the last category
instead of the whole thread. I have made the changes and uploaded txt
file. I will wait patiently for 72 hours to see what happens....

I am receiving this same message of missing condition. I have my feed
done automatically through EBAY for my store. I use the Ebay option
of putting new in the condition box when I create each store item, I
do not leave it blank. In the description of my auctions there is a
statement that all items are new.
So is this something that Ebay should be doing in the data feed file?
Is there something I can do to correct this?

I do do that...with every auction. I am sure to choose from the
options of new or used under the condition box and never leave it
blank. Yet I still have the missing conditions error for 100% of my
listings.
Thank you for your response. I think that ebay just doesn't generate
the condition value and there is nothing I can do if I use the auto
data feed that is generated.
I will do some research and see what I can figure out.

I have it working so it automatically updates and all listings are
fine except for the missing condition.
I looked at the html and didn't see any condition value, all the
others are there. I think this is something out of my hands, unless
maybe contacting ebay about it.
