Listings don't show up when I search for them even though I see them in my seller's list
Hello,
Last night, I listed 12 items- individual parts, all related. Within hours, one item sold. The buyer asked if there were more related items available. I responded "yes, please see the other listings." They said that there were no other listings.
I sent the eBay ID numbers for them to search. Still nothing.
However, I can see the listing in my seller's list, but they are not being posted out into the world.
Question 1: why aren't the listings being displayed?
Question 2: how did the buyer find just one of the listings, and not any of the others?
Thanks for any insight,
David

That sounds frustrating.
If you just want to see your listings --> check here: https://www.ebay.com/mys/active
✓ From my own personal experience, it can take 24-36 hours after listing for your item to appear in search and on your profile.
This is a normal review and indexing period, and your items will appear in search after that process. (I know it is unpleasant to wait.)
Meanwhile, you can use the share feature to share your listing to social media and/or to collector's groups.
Or to your buyer.
>> Also, if your titles are too similar, eBay will only display one at a time to avoid a policy violation for your account.
✓ If you give me the eBay Item Number for your listing, I can look at it and provide some specific advice.
