Bulk Listing Tool Not Working

[caudil_3]

For the past few days I have been trying to use the bulk listing/editing tool, and it either will not load or just gets hung up when trying to change anything? Is anyone else experiencing this issue.

Still not working, anyone else have any luck?

Having the same issue with endless spinning. Doesn't matter what browser I use.

Literally tearing my hair out with this now. Happened back in February and I ended up recreating an auction that has 200 or so variants -- and I'm right back in the same situation. Ebay support has not been very helpful - did you ever get this to work?

I'm having major issues with the bulk listing tool as well. I don't know if it's the same issue that people were having months ago, but most of my files fail to upload entirely. I tested this with a file that worked months ago. That file does upload with no issue. However, when I change ANYTHING about it, including just the name of the file, I get an error message. 

"Your upload failed. We had trouble reading your file. Make sure to stick to commas, semicolons, or tabs to separate your data."

This must be an error on eBay's part, and it's awful. I rely heavily on the bulk upload tool, and if it's screwed up on their end, there's probably no workaround. Please fix this issue, eBay!

Edit: I found a fix. However, I'm guessing people on this thread are talking about the bulk listing tool, not the bulk listing upload tool. If you use the latter, here's the solution to the problem.
