Card's not listing on eBay
These players are not showing up when you try to list an item. Tom Brady, Babe Ruth, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Patrick Mahomes II, Mickey Mantle & Willie Mays and who knows what other players it is effecting. Has anyone seen the same thing? Called eBay they don't seem to know whats going on they just keep telling me it's a index issue.

·1 year agoThis has been going on ever since AI started doing all the work. My guess is that someone manually looks at these items to verify they are legit. These players all have strict standards in place to the use of their names and Images. They all make sure that they get their cut. It's a licensing thing. You can add Lou Gehrig and Joe DiMaggio to your list. Its one of those things that is what it is and nothing we can do about it.

·1 year agoOr Probstein has paid someone off to monopolize the markets. These players are all out for 24-hr auctions, and I used to snipe bigger auctions in the last 24 hours by ending a 24 hr auction right before their 7 days... I bet they're preventing this and that it's not fraud prevention, it's just fraud!

·2 years agoI know you are talking about cards, but JFYI...
I listed a non-card item this morning.
It took about 1 minute to show up as a listing.
It took about 10 minutes to become searchable.
So maybe as @wastingtime101 suggested, the problem is just for cards?

·2 years agoSeveral other sellers are reporting an indexing delay with certain players. This probably has to do something with fraud prevention and those listings undergoing a more thorough review before they're live. You can find another discussion about this here @lodisportscards where Mahomes and Brady were both discussed:

From what I can tell, the listings are all going live within the 24 hours eBay mentions in the help pages.
