this shop has no inventory available in your location

[bromotorsport]

Hi

Around 4 weeks ago when i clicked on my username then, shop i got a blue banner message "this shop has no inventory available in your location"

I noticed my sales had gone less and i believe this maybe the issue. Even now when i click on it, its the same. Sometimes if i click several times 20 items may show up, then all of a sudden all, then again all vanished. I am also finding it hard to find my listings in the search engine, basically not all are showing. Spoken to ebay 4 times and I have been told its a technical bug, a ticket has been raised. Any advice on this as its really taking the *bleep*. All my listings are promoted to

Thanks

Hi @bromotorsport ,

There is an open ticket for this issue with tech at the moment. They are currently working on it to resolve. I'll make sure your account is added to the ticket.

Thank you,

Hi

Thanks. Just to let you know today i noticed it said 8 items in stock, wheras I have 130+

Hi @bromotorsport ,

I'm afraid I don't have a timescale on this at the moment. Its being worked on by tech. Once there is an update on a fix I will let you know.

Thank you,

Kat

Hi

Has it been fixed? I guess its going to take a couple of years?

I often see this message when viewing listings on eBay.co.uk - I find changing the .co.uk to .com or another like .com.hk or .com.sg usually works.

It's how I've managed to find some rare CDs!

Seems like ebay customer service has no answer and are just ignoring this situation. 3 months ago someone said 24/48hrs. I been ringing them every week, same replies and same resolution

Mine today:

Still the same. 3 months into 30-40 calls to ebay

May 2025 and either the issue was never fixed, or the issue is happening again

It’s a longstanding problem. I have asked customers worldwide to check, and they’ve all replied, that my inventory is zero. 

Which is a problem, as I have 108 items for sale. 

Aside from the difficulty of trying to report this to ebay, being told the IT dept is busy and it will take at least 3 days to reply, it’s rather ironic, they’re quick to deduct the monthly business charges for the ebay shop. 
anyone else had any progress to solve this ? 

[waan_2375]

I got Mine resolved when I contacted eBay for business on Facebook . It did take  a few weeks to get resolved but the agent kept me updated throughout and were excellent , got nowhere on the phone

[bicycles_italia]

Perhaps that’s the way, but I’m not on Facebook and I don’t necessarily have any interest in FB. 

Im glad you got your problem sorted, but I think it’s pretty disastrous, for the ebay lines of communication, for this issue, to be non existent. Phone lines as you say are useless, and the automated AI assistant, just never has any options for tech support, re Shop problems. 

Im ready to walk away because I feel, that ebay is too lacking in helping businesses.
