Sync listings / cross-posting
planned

It's unfortunate that this has not been developed yet. I've happily used Trunk for years with only two sales channels, but a few months ago we lost a sales channel and the subscription cost was no longer worth it just to keep my bundled SKU's functioning.
I am switching to BaseLinker (which is still in development in the US but works very well in Poland) for the added crosslisting features etc. so I can more quickly get things going on new sales channels and increase our sales back to normal. I will admit that crosslisting is not as simple as I would like and still takes almost as much work as doing it manually, but that's just because each marketplace has such different feilds and way of doing things, so I understand why this is taking so long.
I will also say that Trunk's inventory sync and bundling works much more intuitively and efficiently than Base's currently does as well, but for the lower price I have to switch right now. I was really frustruated to find out that the cost of Trunk is based on the average orders from the past 3 months, so even though our sales drastically declined after loosing our other sales channel, we were still paying premium prices. I really wish we could have gotten a lower price just for the bundling or based on our actual revenue rather than orders (some items we sell are small/inexpensive so the added cost per order over 100 is not affordable for us).
Let me know if you add this feature in the future and we will consider coming back. Another feature we really like in Base is that it will take orders from other platforms and transfer them to our shop (or we can fulfil through Base if we want) and transfer the tracking details back to the other platforms,

I did a lot of research and even had some email communication with trunk. And it sounded like the cross posting and syncing inventory levels across platform was already something the existed in TRUNK. I need inventory to sync from SquareUp, to eBay, and to Facebook. Today is the first day i have sit-down and wanted to make the jump into setting up the importing into trunk and figure out the syncing process, and Cross posting. and im now finding out it doesn't exist. Even though in the email communication with trunk it sounded like it did exist. Im really disappointed that i signed up for the trial and now not able to use it for what i wanted. The importing from the channels was super smooth and easy as well. Compared to Lightspeed. Lightspeed and their email support was junk.
Is this Sync Listings and cross posting implementation still in the works? if so when is the timeline? If trunk can figure this out they can pull way ahead of the competitor apps, especially Vendoo

Andrew Leer Trunk does sync inventory like they told you, but it doesn't crosslist (which would be creating listings for your products on new platforms)

This. I have been really pleased with how Trunk has worked for me but I need something that will list from one source. If this does get created I'll come back but it's adios from me for now.

I really hope this is coming soon. I am starting to evaluate other platforms as I need 3 key things, 1 of which you already do.
1) Price control for SKUs across different platforms. An example would be Shopify at $100 and eBay, Amazon and Etsy at $110.
2) Create the listing in one location (like Shopify) and create the new listing with the title, description and SKUs across other platforms leaving it in draft status.
3) Have the ability to thread products into bundles and sync inventory. (the reason I use you now).

The biggest issues I have faced with cross posting is a lack of customization on each channel. For example, our ebay has different descriptions, prices and titles then shopify. However everything else is shared.
It would be cool to either have customization of each or select the option to draft the listing so changes can be made in the appropriate channel before it is listed.
I have yet to find a good service that does this, so we are manually doing both listings still.

It would be nice to be able to only turn on the fields you want to sync and possibly an excel like box to put in a formula to adjust price based on the platform.
