Hi all...I've been selling on ebay for a long time and this issue appears to occur from time to time and I'm not sure why. Typically when I list an item it appears in search results within minutes. Last night I listed an item and if I do a newly listed items search this morning, it's still not appearing. Not a lot of items get listed in this category, so if it did appear it would still be visible pretty early in the search results.
If you look at one of my other items and it hit "see sellers other items", you will see it. But not in search results.
The link to the item is below. Any idea why this is occurring?
Thank you,
Felt Football

@feltfootball In case you are not aware, it can take up to 24 hours for the site to index a listing (meaning the item can be found in search).
eBay also now will hold listings from search in certain categories for a minimum of 24 hours. I know they are doing this with militaria so that the listings can be better monitored.

It's never taken 24 hours. 99.99% of the time it takes 5 minutes. My category has never been issue. Maybe it's the dollar amount. Or maybe it's just eBay being eBay fixing something that isn't broken again...like these forums.
