• Imported listings appear in Card Library as they are added, then continue updating as details and photos arrive.

Reliability improvements

• Finish Setup now reliably lands in your ready Card Library on the first try; your shipping/payment/return policies, inventory location, category, condition, and ship-from city/state/postal code no longer disappear when you revisit setup or restart the.
• Importing a batch of 25 now means 25 eligible supported card listings: non-card categories are skipped and replaced from the remainder of your active inventory, and the recommended “next listings” scope advances past cards already.
• Finish Setup now verifies that those settings actually saved and that publish readiness is complete before CardStride marks setup done — a failed save keeps you on Guided Setup with a clear error instead of.
• Import Active eBay Listings no longer skips valid card listings when eBay leaves category data out of the initial results — CardStride now looks up the missing category with a read-only request before deciding.
