How do I add an item to the Barter Store?

 

Once logged into your barter account...
under "Barter Store" menu there is a link to "add to / Edit the Barter Store" click that link, and when the next page comes up there is a box on the middle of the page with a link "Add a New Barter Item for Sale" , click that and a form to add the item will come up. Fill out all the information requested, all items in red must be filled in completely. Once done click the button at the bottom that is labeled "Add Barter Store Item"

This will open another screen that will let you add a description. You should add as much detail as possible about the item you are listing, making sure to include details for shipping payments and item location. Then click "up-date product description"

This will bring you to the final page which gives you the opportunity to add pictures. This can be done by clicking on the "Browse" button which will open a smaller window allowing you to locate the picture on your computer. Once the picture is located click the "Open" button, then when you are passed back to the add picture screen hit the "up-load file" button. If the file is up-loaded successfully it will appear in the box to the left.

Once all photos are added click the link near the top that says "Click Here" to return to product list. This will take you back to the add/edit page and the listing will now appear in your current barter store listings.
