Shadow banning items..

Ebay is shadow banning items to upsell its "promote it" feature..

I listed a very desirable item a few days ago and it's had ONE VIEW. 

At the same time I'm getting messages from Ebay to promote the item..

Said item is AUD$2250 and obviously Ebay want an even bigger cut of the sale than their usual pound of flesh..

Ebay are crooks ..

Well, at least it had one view.  I guess they didn't find it very desirable.

You may be better served asking your question in eBay Australia's Community https://community.ebay.com.au/

You are currently on eBay.com US community boards, we can't even see your listing since you don't ship to the US.

      They must be doing more than that. Even as an Australian buyer I don't see any items listed on this account and only a total of 7 items ever sold.

Listings can't be shadow banned if they aren't listed.

Honestly, if it was desirable, it would have more views.

I have 350 very desirable items listed.

Only 2 of them sold yesterday.

Proof positive that there is shadow banning going on.
