god i wish i was knew code. there is so much to gain as someone who knows what they're doing with the ebay API.
edit:
- even if you don't have a new bidder's email, if you have a high return customer rate then you could match high bidder id with the user id from past customers available in sales downloads
- if you sell anything except ties, size is paramount. anytime something matching a past customer's logged size is listed could be composed to an email and sent to a past customer.
- you could do this for any item specific: stripe, design, color
- all of this can be automated and deployed on a mass scale, as long as you save sales downloads (the past 90 days are available)
- with a SKU system available through custom labels (which is also included in the sales download!), it is possible to track a item from the point it is listed till it is sold (if you were really slick, you could get the item into the database as soon as it enters backlog)
- if this was implemented, it now becomes very possible to do advanced evaluations for past sale price against time value of invested money
soooo many possibilities.
- and by the way, the front end nice looking emails aren't even a hard part. turns out you can code email just like web pages, you can have css INSIDE email. holy ****.
