Can i make listings not go up until the video is approved?
I am trying to sell one of a kind items no one else in the world has, and the biggest selling point is the video that shows it off. I have even referenced the video in the description... only anyone looking at the auction will question what I'm talking about since no video is currently shown in the listing. The video is very important for people to know the real quality of items and how they function in use. Without the video there is not the same appeal, and bidding will either not happen or be lower. Also I've noticed if you do not pay for the advertising, day 1 is the most important day of your auction, they actually let it show up in result more. You can tell because day 1 always has the most views. I've missed the entire first day with no video in my listing. Its upsetting. I just want to list the items with the video pre-approved so I can have a fair chance to actually list my items correctly.
