Item description continually deleted in new format

[rock*alley]

Hi all,

I'm using my desktop and every single item I have listed tonight has had its item description deleted - I only noticed after going through to double check some listings.

When I revise the listing and save it then view the listing, the description is deleted again.

This has only happened since eBay moved over to the new listing format.

Is anyone else having this issue?

So frustrating!

The October issue was likely different.

If you are using the quick listing tool, try the new listing tool.

I doubt if what i'm using is a QUICK listing tool, there are MANY sections for the various parameters

thank you

it's at least been happening faithfully since mid January when we started posting after the first of the year.

Same thing happening to me, multiple times. I've spent hours on this—why can't my listing stay exactly as I've specified (e.g., item size changes to some incorrect default, even though I added in my own custom values and didn't base the listing on a previous one)?
