Answer
Has anyone done this before?
If I launch using prefilled info, can I go in later and fix the title or change category without incurring additional fees?
I tried out a couple of books (dry runs, just up to "submit") and Ebay put them into the wrong category. I am doing homeschool books and they are being listed as children's books. Also, there is a lot of blank space in the title that I would like to add keywords to, like "homeschool" "teaching" etc.
Anybody know if you can fix-up the listing & keep the 10 cent listing fee?

Answer
I tried listing a couple of books this morning, using the item specifics via Turbo Lister. According to the fees downloaded by TL, I still got charged .30 for each listing. What'd I do wrong?
Nevermind! I just read the OP... would help if I read stuff, wouldn't it? http://community.here.com/infopop/em...on_biggrin.gif

Turbo Lister does not do the pre-filled. Only CA and normal SYI do at this time.
Answer
Inkfrog doesn't do it either.
