Hi,

 

That item number isn't recognised.  However, I've looked through your listings and photos now seem to be showing.  Although some of the photos for robot vacuum aren't showing - they have a box with blue circle (I'm using IE9).

 

I've had the red cross box in the past and it was due to host site problems.

 

Incidentally, you need to register as a Business seller:

Op,

 

I've just been looking at some of your listings and many of them breach ebay policies:

 

You need to read the Keyword Spamming policy!:

http://pages.ebay.co.uk/help/policies/search-manipulation.html

 

Some of them are showing item location as Wirral, Merseyside , CHINA!!!!   If items are being sent from China then you need to change to China only.

 

You cannot state different postage costs within the description or charge more post-auction.   People bid/buy based on the information in the start price/BIN and in the P&P section.

 

You cannot state 'make me an offer' - it intimates an off-ebay transaction which is reportable.

 

You cannot state contact me for your requirements and I'll invoice you through PayPal.  Again that constitutes an off-ebay transaction.

Ah, see what you mean.  I'm also seeing the blue circles like for the iRobot.

 

I'm a techie numptie though, so if it doesn't rectify in next day or so, try asking on the techie board:

You also need to sort that listing out as well as you can't give choices like that.  You should be able to create a listing with variations though:
