End and Sell Similar Problem

Question

I had 70 listings ending today. I ended them to sell similar. Only 15 are showing to be inactive. Where are the other 55? Has anyone else had this issue?

Good Til Cancelled GTC buy it now listings roll over every 30 days on the calendar date they were listed on, and they keep the same URL and history, Ex: watchers and views when they roll over.

Ending a GTC listing and relisting using sell similar or just relisting creates a new draft with a new Item number, and a 0 watcher & views history.
As to why only 15 have shown up so far I cannot say, ebay may have had some servers down for awhile. Maybe you choked the system relisting 55 items at once.

I'd keep an eye on your newly listed page to see if the others start reappearing. If they do not they originals should be in your seller Hub Ended folder, unless you manually deleted them, so you can try relisting them a maybe ten or so at a time.

Who ever it was that told you you had to cancel and relist either hadn't sold anything in several years or were not a very experienced seller to begin with.

It looks like all of your listings are buy it now ones. If they didn't sell they would have automatically relisted after 30 days, so you did not need to End them and relist. The others may show up later on . I just did a search of your newly listed items and found that you have at least 60 items that relisted yesterday at 6:28 pm.

FYI. you should end the listing for the undeveloped Kodachrome film rolls. the last commercial lab in the world to process Kodachrome in color, stopped service in December 2010. No company makes the necessary K-14 chemicals or runs this process today.
