GoogleBase Link URL and GoogleCheckout Badge

[Cymbeline]

Hi, everyone

I've been going back and forth with Google for the past several days and am not getting anywhere. One of my current issues with Google is that my googlecheckout badges are not showing up with my googlebase items. This is why as I was told by Google:

Please confirm that the link attribute in your Base feeds is also set
to 'http://www.cruelcat.com.' The link attribute must exactly match your
display URL in Google Checkout in order to display badges.

Are they saying my URL in my data feed can no longer be product-specific, but just the homepage URL for all of my base item? Surely I am misunderstanding. This makes no sense to me.

I did find this info in the GoogleBase Help file and changed my data feed header accordingly.

Does Google Checkout work for bulk uploaded items?
Yes. If you'd like to use Google Base hosted item pages and accept Google Checkout for bulk uploaded items, simply add GoogleCheckout as a payment option under the payment_accepted attribute. If, however, you're already using Google Checkout directly on your website, please include it as a payment option under the payment_notes attribute instead.

Has anyone else had this issue with google: google checkout badges not showing on googlebase items? How did you fix it?

Thank you!

Re: GoogleBase Link URL and GoogleCheckout Badge

Apparently, in GoogleBase, one cannot have both product URLs and GCO badges. Per Google's response to my latest question:

Thank you for your reply. I understand you would like some
clarification
of how to direct to a specific product page, and yet still be able to
display Checkout badges on your Google Product Search listings.

I've forwarded your message to our specialists for a resolution. Please
rest assured that we'll respond with additional information as soon as
possible.
