    Have you tried touchretail or mode retail (Fashione) we get good feedback from clients on those 2. They both have retailers in your sector.

    Stock control ebay/website

    Obviously you need to work with your web developer on this though, to ensure the platform you are on supports any of the suggestions above (it may not, so your web provider has to be your first port of call).

    Scrape facility to check retail prices?

    The service you're looking for is called competitor price monitoring if you google that phrase you'll find lots of companies who offer this. Be careful though when using these services though as sometimes the data isn't accurate, also scraping some sites without site owner consent could get you...

    Stock control ebay/website

    Look at Linnworks, Brightpearl, Esellerpro etc they all do similar things, at the volume you are at it sounds like you've outgrown the current set up. Plenty of systems out there to automate these processes and make your life easier.

    The Best E-Commerce Platforms Compared (How To Decide)

    Ebay Ridiculous

    I've been using eBay for years now, both buying and selling. Years ago it used to be too weighted on the seller, lots of buyers got scammed and eBay started to get a bad name for itself (some people believed they encouraged / protected bad sellers etc) - lots of big brand retailers wouldn't sell...
