I just spent an hour writing the description for my listing...

Question

And it was removed automatically by eBay because I included a link to the product information page for the item in question (read: NOT A SALE PAGE) in the description.

And now, when I try to return to the listing so that I can correct it, it returns an error. Deleted. I have to write the thing all over again. All the effort I put in to write a thorough description of its condition and features because the AI description is flat-out useless.

This is such a disappointing, frustrating outcome. There is absolutely no benefit to not letting users rectify their own errors like this. I don't think eBay is going to do anything about it. I just want to vent.

EBay does not allow links that go off eBay.

In the future, I suggest writing your long description in Notepad, and then copy/paste into the ebay description. That way, if anything happens, you have a copy of the original that you can revise and re-upload.
