Recover deleted eBay items
I accidentally deleted 200 relisted items on eBay and can't find a way to recover them. From what I understand, eBay doesn't offer direct recovery of deleted listings, which is frustrating. I would appreciate any advice on how to manage this situation. Is there an efficient way to relist them without incurring additional fees? Perhaps someone in the community has faced a similar issue and found a workaround? Looking forward to your suggestions and experiences!

·3 weeks agoDid you bookmark the previous listed items that closed, or are available as drafts when you were editing them, before they were set to be relisted? I always bookmark every auction, even the header is important. eBay makes it near impossible to see closed sales after 90 days, they should be available to sellers (at least) for 6 months because I usually get a similar item on day 91. lol.

·3 weeks agoIt's a big site with literally billions and billions of listings. So there has to be a time limit on most of them. It takes a lot of space to store this data.
With that said, normally [if the listing isn't actually deleted] a listing will remain available to the seller for 90 days. But if a seller goes into there Site Preferences for their Inventory and set the OOS function, once a listing hits a qty of zero, Ebay will retain it for up to 6 months in case you get more stock in. However these listings will renew and use up part of the free allotment of listings each month. Something to remember.

·3 weeks agoYou can close listings WITHOUT actually deleting them by just bringing the qty available to zero. Check your Active Listings and see if they are there first.
