Hello,

Looks like something is missing. Please fix any issues and try again.

The photos are there, and show in the Preview. I have resaved them smaller, changed browsers, cleared cache and cookies, but nothing changes.

With a break from selling the account will need updating to remove the error messages .. some requirements have changed including the need for setting up Managed Payments with Current UK Account Banking details in order to send and receive Payments for transactions ... check in these links >

Thank you, but even after re-entering my account detail, my card and waiting for a few days nothing has changed and the error message about Photos still appears.

Re: Error message [Photos] preventing listing

Hi @jadepeonies, thanks for your post.

 

I would recommend checking if the photos meet the following criteria:

  • Photos should be no more than 7MB each.
  • Photos should be at least 500 pixels on the longest side, but we recommend 800-1600 pixels.
  • Accepted file formats (JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, WEBP, HEIC, or AVIF).

 

I would also recommend deleting the photos from your draft and re-uploading them, as well as adding additional photos to see if that helps (you can add up to 24 photos).

 

Please also see the following pages for more info:

Thank you,

Anita

Re: Error message [Photos] preventing listing

Just wondered if there is a solution to this as I am having the same problems. Tried all the above solutions, even photographed items again, still having errror message.

Why can't e-bay sort this out!

Re: Error message [Photos] preventing listing

Was there any further conclusion to this?

I have listed a few items with no problems at all, same phone pics/size etc, last item won't work - used new set of photos, cleared cache etc but still no joy. REALLY frustrating.

Re: Error message [Photos] preventing listing

The fix is to save the listing to draft, then close the app. Then open it, delete every single photo, save as draft, close app, open app,  and reupload photos. I recently did this and it worked for me.
