VariationSpecificsSet container (Item.Variations.VariationSpecificsSet) is required to list a Multi-SKU item.
This is the error vendio shows me when I try to list any product with variation such as size or color. I have tried to list several different ways to no avail. The product shows in my web store but never makes it to Ebay. Any help is much appreciated.
p.s. I have contacted Vendio support but it has been a day and a half and still haven't heard word back yet.

a quick seach of ebay indicates this is a new feature perhaps not tied to Vendio listing yet.
Here's what eBay says,
Selling different variations of an item—for example, a shirt available in different colors and sizes—in one multi-variation Fixed Price listing saves you money on fees, makes listing faster and easier, and encourages buyers to buy more. For sellers, those listings will be even more powerful and easier to use. You can show buyers more details of your multi-variation items on the search results page, letting them know right away they’ll find what they’re looking for when they click on your listing.

Highlights
This summer, eBay will use even more item specifics from your multi-variation listings to help buyers locate the items they’re looking for. Buyers will begin to see more details about your listing in search results such as your price range and available color options. When buyers search for items and specify a color, they’ll see only the pictures that correspond to that color.
Enhancements coming in October will give you more listing options: •Specify related variation details (Size/ Size Type and Color/Shade) to help match your relevant multi-variation listings to more buyer searches.
•Rename existing variations in active listings, for example, if your listing includes Size 14, you can change it to include Women’s Size 14—even if those listings had a sale.
•Bulk-edit price and quantity in your multi-variation listing—even if those listings have had a sale.
•Easily add pictures for different variations.
•Add a new variation to your active listings, even those with sales. For example, add material as a variation to listings that already include different colors or sizes.
Later this year, a new feature will be available to identify existing single-variation fashion listings and convert them to one multi-variation listing.

Take Action
•Include more item specifics in your multi-variation listings—even when they’re not required. It’s more important than ever to get your items found by interested buyers.
•When listing items in Clothing, Shoes & Accessories that differ only by size and/or color, use a multi-variation listing to combine all inventory into one listing.
•Starting in October, add the recommended related details such as “color” and “shade” to give buyers more of the information they need upfront to choose your listing.
•As soon as the new feature is available, use it to combine your single variation Fashion listings into one multi-variation listing to help your visibility and sales.

Thanks for the reply and the info, hopefully Vendio incorporates this quickly because this is a huge deal breaker for us.
