What does it mean if your items say not eligible for promotional update

[markea-1642]

On my items I have listed for sale they say not eligible for promotional update. When I search by item description on the search box they don't come up with the other items for sale in that brand search, any ideas

Private sellers - who are people selling off their old no-longer-wanted possessions from wardrobe and attic - cannot use this feature. It is only available to business sellers. As that is what you appear to be, you need to upgrade your account as a matter of urgency, before you find yourself in deep doodoo with Ebay (for defrauding them of listing fees) and Trading Standards (for breaking the law).

Note that there is no such thing as a 'hobby seller' in this country, and how much or how you little you sell or make is totally irrelevant.
