If you're submitting google-base items from your eBay-store
try using the steps outlined below --
please see here: http://pages.ebay.com/help/stores/contextual/export-listings.html
note: the fmt=g feed doesn't work with all ebay-store scenarios.
- Register a google-base xml data-feed-file with the name: yourstorename.xml
- Click on the "Settings" tab in your google-base account;
- Under "Website URL (Optional)", replace the existing URL
with your store's XML link generated by eBay. The link should look like this:
http://esssl.ebay.com/GetListings/yourstorename?fmt=g
- Click "Save Changes" to confirm your changes;
- Click the "Data feeds" link on your "My Items" tab;
- Click "edit" next to "schedule" beside your "data feed";
- Under "URL of file," replace the existing URL with the ebay generated link as mentioned in step (3) above;
- Click "Update Schedule" to confirm your changes;
- Your data feed will be automatically submitted in the correct format, next time and onwards, per your schedule.

note: the fmt=g feed doesn't work with all ebay-store scenarios.
Unfortunately, the Google Merchant Center no longer accepts any feed data from marketplace-sellers directly; all marketplace items must be submitted by the marketplace. In this example, ebay must submit all items on your behalf.
But thank you for all the generous feedback.

Thank you, this was very helpful!
i just wanted to praise you up, down, and backward for posting these instructions. i've been trying to get my listings to post on google for months now--ever since the "store connector" stopped working. i spent SO much time looking in help threads and forums, trying out various solutions, and just gave up. but today i found your posting, which was the ONLY one to state that you have to use the scheduler AND put "http://essl.ebay.com" etc. as the domain name in the settings page. wow, what a relief! i'm hoping sales increase again. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for your simple instructions! 2 1/2 months have passed since I have been able to post on google base. Your instructions were easy to follow (not written in code that a simple person like me cant figure out!). I cannot thank you enough!
Thanks very much very easy to follow. thanks to you now i have stuff on google. great!!
thanks again
Wow. Simple and easy to follow instructions. What a rare occurrence!! Thanks!!
Works for the UK as well but change ebay.com to ebay.co.uk for the prices in GBP. With 2 Google accounts you can have 2 feeds as well, one for the US with prices in USD and one for the UK with prices in GBP.
What arefreshing chnage, simpel understandable instructions.
