Question Re: Listing Not Showing Up in Selling on eBay DND

Listing Not Showing Up

rpm_zone — Wed, 09 Sep 2020 17:12:49 GMT

I was just wondering if anyone has a problem with the listing not showing up.

I am selling on eBay.ie and with the last month and a half, it's gone dead.

I have contacted eBay two times about it.

They say there is nothing wrong.

But when I search for it on my computer, laptop, phone, friends phone I can't find them.

I used different Search terms. Everything I could think of.

With the last week, I have been tracking the clicks.

Not great for the click.

I have all checking other sellers that have the same listing as me to see if they are selling.

They are able to get a number of sales.

I've got a good photo

I've got a good title

Mobile friendly.

Return policy (other sellers don't have)

Good price on the item's

I've got all the item specifics in.

Anyone have the same problem

Thanks

Pat

Although it rarely does, it can take upto 24hrs for listings to appear, you currently have 14 items showing, but i don`t know if thats what should be there.

Perhaps the fact your selling illegally is`nt helping 🙂

You're trading illegally on a private account. Anyone who makes, grows, refurbishes, or buys in (new or used) items to sell, is a business and must be registered as such. Not only an Ebay requirement but EU law. Private accounts are ONLY for those selling off their old no-longer-wanted possessions from wardrobe and attic. That clearly isn't you. For confirmation, go to Ebay's Seller Centre (link at foot of any page). For full information, go to your government's website.

And note that there is no such thing as a 'hobby seller', and how much or how little you sell or make is totally irrelevant.

I would advise you to upgrade your account from private to business (takes seconds) as a matter of urgency, before you find yourself in big trouble with Ebay (for defrauding them of listing fees) and with Ireland's equivalent of Trading Standards (for breaching consumer law and denying buyers their legal rights).

In Ireland, you can sell up to 2500 euros before registered for vat. If I change it to a business account I lose my free listing. Ebay allowed seller to sell up to 100 items as a private seller in a year. I ask eBay in eBay chat. I've got no problem pay the vat if the want to come after me. I have kept all the receipts.
I am not denying anyone of the right.
