Well I just went through all my listings. I have 275 active listings. Right now I have listings with hours left all the way to 30 days. Right now 107 out of 275 have at least 1 view. Who cares..right. But when I search Paintings Category with Spray Paint as the method used to paint them which all 275 have that applied to them..only 155 show up in Spray Paint in the 35 pages that eBay shows? So where are the other 120 listings being shown to potential customers? in Paintings only? and if so then why have I taken all this time providing all of these item specifics which we so desperately needed and should do?

If all my artwork is live..then why are they all not showing up in that specific method of creation sub category of Paintings?

Anyone?..eBay!

Those who take part in this discussion board are not employed by eBay - we're just volunteers and sellers and buyers like you. When I look at your listings that specify "spray paint" production technique, I see 248 of 275 with that designation.

And I also see exactly what melda58 sees.

@mural_man88

Some of your listings show "Spray painted" as the Production Technique (235) but 12 show "Acrylic Painting" and 15 are "Not Specified":

I looked at one of the listings that shows as "Not specified" and I saw that for that listing, you chose Material = "Spray Paint" so you put the technique into a different item specific for that listing. That's why it doesn't show up under the Production Technique filter.

@mural_man88 Hopefully you will return here and see the at least part of the solution to the issue you raised as discovered by Lacemaker - namely, you must check off "Spray Painted" in Production Technique.

Yes I see what you are saying with the production technique issue and that would account for around 30 listings between Acrylic and Not Specified and thanks for that information but as far as I could tell in original post I made at the time..almost 90 listings could not be found in the 35 pages of Spray Painted paintings? I searched through all 35 pages. I mean I get in the category numbers it says you have this many in here and this many in here but if they cannot actually be found in there then where are they?

Maybe all listings don't show up in there only in Paintings? or I wonder if it could have something to do with either changes not sticking to listings or the age of the listings because quite a few are really old?

Today I count 169 on the 35 pages in Spray Paint Technique in Art Paintings. This and the original post are with me logged out searching by the way! I believe there are also same paintings by others showing up on multiple pages but I don't think mine did.. I know I could have missed 1 or 2 possibly searching through pages but..262 minus 169 minus say 30 for unspecified and so forth still leaves around 63 paintings unaccounted?

I guess its not a huge deal to me anyhow right now.. but I want to say thanks for the replies everyone!
