Sending an offer to buyers locks your listings up for days

If you use the seller hub and you send an offer to buyers, you won't be able to make any changes whatsoever to your listing for days, and you won't be able to end the offer to buyers.

 

For some reason eBay have forgotten to add the ability to end the offers, and eBay won't let you make any changes to the listings you've sent offers for, so essentially your listings will be uneditable for at least 3 days.  You can't edit the item description, price, postage cost or service, postage estimates, quantity of items available, etc.

 

This is an absolute nightmare if you have a multiple item listing and thought it would benefit you to send out some offers to interested buyers.

 

The problem is compounded by the fact that it now takes 24 hours for a listing to show up in search, so once you've sent the offers and you can't edit your listing, you don't even have the ability to create a 2nd listing to show up in search that day either.

 

 

Seller hub certainly gives more tools for sellers, but it also takes away vital functions that can seriously harm your revenue stream.

Re: Sending an offer to buyers locks your listings up for days

If I send an offer to buyer, can others still see my listing and buy it or does it put it on hold until the buyer decides.

listing is still available for buy it now. If someone buys it, the sent offer becomes "void".
