I have been selling on Discogs for about six months now. I had been collecting music for about two years with this intent. The pricing I initially placed on about 1800 items was at a point that made the sale, and I thought perhaps a bit low as inventory moved pretty well. I have had about 150 transactions and sold over 500 LPs and CDs.

I charged a bit more for shipping - $8 for up to 2LPs or 4CDs and $1 more for each two additional items - and noted that I pack securely and ship promptly. I have gotten kudos on my packaging and send times.

Not wanting to do a bulk change to prices, but finding that multi-CD orders of 15-20 items in particular were grabbing a lot of the low priced stuff, I upped shipping to be an additional $1 for each additional item. Things still got bought. Then I raised prices on all CDs that were priced under $5 by fifty cents, sometimes a dollar, looking at each listing individually to decide change amount, and sales have skidded to a trickle. So I want to go back to the old item prices and looking at using a .csv format have stumbled upon the Discogs Labs New Inventory System.

I have found selling on Discogs to be a desktop job, not a phone job, and works OK. I really like the customers for their kindness and responses. But I am uncertain if I want to update to the New Inventory System, how long it has been available, if it is trustworthy.

Any opinions greatly appreciated, apologies for the long intro here.

Thank you!
