Auction listings not appearing in search for 24 hours?

I've noticed that lately my auctions don't show up in the search engine for long periods of time but this is getting a little absurd. An entire day has gone by and my listing does not exist. 0 views. No way to find it under search. I also paid $2.50 to promote it lol. I think it did the opposite? If this is a known issue?

Sometimes it can take a while.  Remember when you're listing, so are thousands of other sellers.  It can take a while for those listings to catalog.  

 

Happy Selling!

It's specific to auctions for me though. I haven't noticed delays on fixed prices.  Also auctions deserve the advertised duration. If I were to do a 3 day auction 24 hours shaved off would be rather significant. No worries it's just weird.

Revising a listing before it is indexed makes it start all over. 
Create the listing, make sure you have no changes, and let it run.

This has been going on for awhile.  The majority of my auctions don't show up until around this specified period of time.

Very useful info. Thank you. I changed the title this afternoon.

Revising an item doesn't start the 24 indexing over. That's incorrect. Some items show up immediately. When I list an auction I've revised a few minutes later and it still shows up within the hour. Could just be indexing but it doesn't start the 24 hour indexing clock over.

No it doesn't start the clock over. Some categories and items just take longer to index. I've revised items a few minutes after theyve started and they'll show up within the hour.

Yes, they can take up to 24 hours to show in the search returns.
