Just relisted about 40 Unsold auction listings with "Relist as Fixed Price" and after the process completed, the items are indeed relisted but DID NOT move from "Unsold and Not Relisted" to "Relisted". I will delete the auction listings, but this is going to be fun if not fixed soon!!

I've done this in the opposite direction (BIN to Auction) and I believe this is actually the way that the system was designed to work. Not saying that it makes sense, but that it seems to be the norm.

Your "relisted" item is actually a "new" listing, with a new item number. The "old" listing (with the original item number) becomes an "unsold and not relisted" item. They can be deleted from that page easily enough, if you so desire.

If you have never owned a dachshund, no explanation is possible.
If you have owned a dachshund, no explanation is necessary.

Yes, this dawned on me later that this is a feature, not a bug! I hadn't used this new format for a while and forgot how difficult it is to remember all the steps required to keep the data straight. I wouldn't have designed it like this but that's another matter. You are correct in that the new listing is just that. Thanks for confirming my suspicions!
