Trouble listing an Item

For the past three days, I have been experiencing continued difficulty in trying to list my items on ebay.  I complete my listing and when I hit "List", the system goes blank like it is trying to list the item, but never is successful. When I hit back space, the entire listing disappears and I have to start all over. I have tried clearing my browser and using several different search engines, but all to no avail.  Any thoughts, suggestions or is ebay having problems?

First off, backspace can act like a back button on some browsers and yes it could clear your listing.

 

If your listing is not completing, you should have a copy under "Drafts".  I would look there and see if you are able to open and resume it that way.  I would even try saving it as a draft first before trying to list it.

 

As for browsers, I primarily use Firefox with eBay and have good results.  I also use a PC, as mobile devices trying to use eBay just plain annoy me.  lol

 

However it should work equally well on Edge and Chrome.  I have even used it on Opera GX.  I don't work with Safari much, but it should work okay if you are using an Apple PC or Tablet.

 

eBay itself seems to be fine, I haven't had any issues recently, other than they keep changing and moving things around.  😛

 

Anytime I get a page that seems to have trouble, I hit CTRL-ALT-R.  This forces a full refresh of that page and its data, removing any cached versions.

Thanks for your thoughts.  I am on a Windows desktop system and usually use Chrome, but when it failed tonight, I used Edge successfully once before it, too, failed.  I'll try your other ideas. Thanks again.
