Can’t find my listing when I search my item.

[samuraishoeguy]

I’m new to eBay selling, but I’m just confused. I listed an item and once it was active I see in my hub I have a couple of views but when I search for my item I can’t find it. I even asked my brother and my girlfriend to look up the item and still it hasn’t popped up. Can anyone help me or guide me would appreciate it.

It can take a couple of days for your item to be searchable, even though you see it as active in your hub...especially since you are brand new.  Good luck on your new journey.

I appreciate the answer means a lot! Thank you wishing you nothing but more sales and blessings this year!

Since you're new, I would give it a few hours for the listing to be fully viewable across the platform.

OP, did you try searching using Google Search?  Put in the title and Ebay.  See if it shows up.

It won't take "days" but it can take quite a few hours.

Do not make revisions to your listings BEFORE they have been indexed for the first time, the clock restarts each time when you do that.

I am having a simular issue, but now its been 30 hours, I think ebay has a glitch or "upgrade" going on this week end! 20 listings still dont show in my feed, but are included in the count. If I search for them they come up, but no where to be found in my view both mobile app and store views. 😇 maybe give it til Monday??

I have waited 5 days after my Item was listed at ebay.de. Still can't find it when use related search words. I have contacted custom service but their answers are just nonsens. I have not made any changes during these 5 days. How much patience is necessary??

This is an old thread from 2022, so I doubt the person who posted this will reply & the best answer was selected. 

This is mostly a US community forum and you may be better served by logging out of eBay.com and logging into eBay.com/de community discussion forum to get the help & advice you need.  Good luck!

Happy Selling
