I sell identified antique photos, and include the image in the body of the item description as well as the gallery.
Yahoo just recently provided https functionality on my server, so to meet eBay's requirement, I did mass changes on all my listings to change all occurrences of http:// to https://. A week later, I'm still getting emails from eBay saying all my listings have non-secure HTTP content - and all my listings are still broken into 2 pages with the first page saying See Full Item Description - so I'm investigating.
If I select an image from the item description and do a right-mouse-click >view image - it shows a path with https - but if I look at the html code in the listing by doing a revise item, the code still shows http, NOT https.
Why does this happen?
Why doesn't eBay know all my listings are updated?
Why aren't my mass updates applied to the html code?
I've been coding https since it's been available to me, so for recent listings there is no issue. This is only for 3000 old listings - here's an example of an older one

Here's the html for the 2 photos in the description of that listing
