Okay, this is the first batch of GTC items I've ended since the mandatory GTC program started. I ended about 35 listings in my "Art" category because I have new items to include and need to revise some of the ones I'm taking down. I like to list items in groups because it provides continuity for my buyers.
Before mandatory GTC I received emails when my 30 day fixed priced auction items ended.... it made it easy to track, edit and add items to the mix in my store. Have not received any "ENDED" Listing notifications at all from eBay. Not sure if this is a glitch or will become the norm.
I really hate GTC. It has made so much more work for me and YES I use the seller hub to know when items are ending.
What if I forget or worst case scenario die. The reason I mention this is because I had a stroke last year and was out of commission for about a week. (stroke is not something that only happens just to old people). I'm fine now but feel like I need to make sure someone in my family knows how to end all of my listings and close my store in the event of my death. Debbie downer here:) eBay sure as hell will continue billing rollover GTC listings in the event of my death.

I don't think I have ever been notified when "I" ended a listing. I ended it. I don't need to be told something that I already know.

WOW! Your trust in eBay is admirable.

You will have to use the seller hub and sort by ending soonest. Then each day or two look over your listings and decide which ones you want to relist and which ones you want to end.

No, you're being very smart......... everyone should have a plan in case something happens........not only death, but illness, disaster or something as simple as internet connections totally going down...... Same thing as the rest of life...... where are your bank accounts, what on going services need to be canceled/paid.....etc.
