Quantity Manager is a small eBay tool that keeps a low visible quantity on fixed price listings and refills it automatically after each sale.
Quantity Manager is a small eBay tool that keeps a low visible quantity on fixed price listings and refills it automatically after each sale. A seller might hold 50 units but show only 2 or 3 at a time, which the site says encourages buyers to purchase and works with eBay's sales history in search. After each sale the tool tops the listing back up from the stock number you enter, usually within about six seconds. New listings are imported automatically, and relisted items are matched to ended listings with the same title within 30 days so settings carry over. It connects through the official eBay API, so it does not need your eBay password. The service has run since 2008.
Key features
- Keeps a low display quantity on fixed price listings

FAQ
The fees page lists a $5.00 monthly fee plus $0.02 for each successful automatic inventory refresh. Manual quantity changes, automatic import of new items and settings import from relisted items are free. Invoices are issued on the 1st of each month, payment is due within 15 days, and all payments are handled through PayPal.
Yes. All new users get a free seven day trial to evaluate the service. The fees page says you must cancel before the trial ends to prevent future charges. After the trial, the $5 monthly fee and per refresh charges apply, billed monthly through PayPal.
The FAQ says the display quantity must be at least 2 for the tool to work. For items that usually sell one at a time it recommends showing 2 or 3 units, and for items bought in bulk it suggests showing one or two more than the typical order size. Multi-variation listings can go to zero without ending.
No. The FAQ says the service uses the eBay API, the official method for third party tools, and only needs an authorization token that you grant when linking your account. It also recommends that you do not reuse your eBay password when creating your Quantity Manager account.
The fees page only states that trial users must cancel before the seven day trial ends. Step by step instructions are not published, so check your account settings after logging in or contact support through the Zendesk link or contact page. Because billing runs through PayPal, also confirm no automatic payment remains active.
The website links a Zendesk based support area, an FAQ page and a contact page. The FAQ suggests contacting support if a refresh takes longer than a few minutes, since a typical update takes about six seconds and longer delays usually point to a configuration problem.
Scarcity Manager offers a similar low visible quantity feature along with supplier stock checks. Multichannel inventory tools such as Trunk and SKULabs sync real stock levels across eBay and other channels, and eBay management software such as 3Dsellers covers inventory and listing tasks more broadly. Sellers can also manage quantities manually in eBay Seller Hub.
