How can my books on eBay get picked up on BookFinder?

Hello. Does anyone know how BookFinder can find/pick up my eBay book listings? I don't think it's automatic since my books have not been picked up yet despite having been on eBay for several weeks now. Do I have to add item specifics based on what's already in eBay's database? If so, I don't see any way to do that in my current eBay listings. Thanks.

Most of your books are being sold in lots at auction.  I think Bookfinder uses a single ISBN from the title or item specifics with a set price; not auctions.   What price could they fill in for those?  The one lone book has no ISBN but would be hard for Bookfinder to find because you add commas to the title and ommited the author's first name.

I am not familiar with bookfinder but agree with the other poster. None of your books would be found without being listed individual as a single book with a specific ISBN.

Good points, toysaver. Thanks. I'll keep those things in mind for future listings and see if it works.

There's more going on than this.  My listings used to appear on bookfinder, no more.  I copied a book listing from another seller exactly whose item did appear on bookfinder, no luck.  ebay is controlling this according to an undisclosed algorithm/policy.
