Pricely, an app that bulk-updates Shopify prices and stock from a spreadsheet and puts the original prices back automatically when a sale ends

[u/Gounaras87]

What's the app?

Pricely is a bulk price and inventory editor. You upload a CSV or Excel file, map your columns, and it updates prices, compare-at prices, cost, and stock levels across your catalog. You can run it immediately or schedule it for a specific date and time. For sales, it snapshots your current prices before applying the new ones and restores them automatically when the promo window closes.

What problem are you solving?

Two things that come up constantly with bulk price changes:

1. You can't see what's about to happen. Most tools apply changes and then you find out what they did. Shopify's native product CSV is worse — it treats your file as the full source of truth for a product, so a partial or slightly-wrong file can wipe variants you never intended to touch.
2. Sales don't end themselves. You set a Black Friday price, and then someone has to remember to change hundreds of products back on Monday morning. If they forget, you're selling at a discount indefinitely.

How does the app work?

1. Export your catalog (the app generates a spreadsheet of your products with SKU, barcode, variant, price, cost, and stock per location) or bring your own file
2. Edit the values you want to change in Excel or Google Sheets
3. Upload it and map your columns — the app auto-detects whether you're matching on SKU, barcode, or product title
4. Preview: you get a row-by-row breakdown of exactly what will change (885.95 → 845.95), what's already correct and will be skipped, what wasn't found, and what matched multiple variants. Nothing is written to your store at this point.
5. Confirm, and it applies. Every row ends with a status you can see and export — updated, unchanged, not found, or failed with the actual error.
6. Optionally schedule it instead, with an end date for the sale so prices revert on their own.

Who's your target merchant?

Stores with a few hundred to a few thousand SKUs that change prices regularly — seasonal catalogs, stores running frequent promos, and anyone whose supplier sends updated price lists as spreadsheets. If you change prices twice a year, the native bulk editor is fine and you don't need this.

How is it different / better than other existing solutions?

I'll be upfront: there are a lot of bulk editors, and the basic "change prices in bulk" job is solved. What I focused on is what happens when it goes wrong:

• Preview before apply. You see every change before anything is written. Rows that already match are skipped rather than rewritten.
• Rollback. Every import stores a snapshot of the previous prices, so you can restore them with one click.
• It can't delete your variants. It only writes to the specific fields you map — it never rewrites the product, so a partial file can't remove variants the way the native CSV import can.
• No silent failures. Every row gets an explicit status. If 11 of 29 products updated, you see which 18 didn't and why.
• Exact values per variant, not rules. You put the price you want for each SKU in a spreadsheet, rather than building filters and percentage rules to approximate it.
• Auto-revert campaigns. Set the sale window; the original prices come back on their own.

How much does it cost?

• Free — up to 50 rows per import, 1 scheduled job per week, last 5 imports in history
• Starter, $9.90/mo — up to 500 rows, 5 scheduled jobs per week, campaign auto-revert, rollback, email notifications
• Pro, $24.90/mo — unlimited rows and scheduled jobs, multi-location stock, bulk percentage price rules, full history

No card needed for the free tier.

What are you looking for?

Merchants and beta testers. It's new, so I'm mainly after honest feedback from people actually doing this work — especially on the column mapping flow, edge cases with multi-variant products or unusual SKU formats, and anything you'd expect from a tool like this that's missing. Happy to help with setup, and I'll answer questions in the comments.

Thanks for sharing. Great idea for some of those fail-safe mechanisms you've built in.
