BIN Price Changing! Help!

For the second time in two days, my BIN listing prices have mysteriously changed on their own, and buyers have snapped up unintended deals. I haven't found this problem addressed here, so need some advice on how to handle. I'm listing on my PC at home, not on mobile.  In each case, the items sold quickly, at 10% their listed BIN price (no auctions or offers in the listings).  First was a clothing item I had listed for $20, which sold for $2; buyer understood and cancelled transaction.  After this, I checked every item I had listed to be sure that if I had made a mistake, I hadn't made it again.  Second one was overnight, an item I had listed for $10 (know for a fact, b/c I did a sell similar), which sold for $1.  Really?!  Has anyone else encountered this problem?  What was the cause, and what was the solution?  TIA

 

Also, is there a way to print out a my selling summary as I see it online, or similar?  I can't find this info here, or on eBay "help" either.  TIA

Never heard of it before......

 

If you want to print the list of active listings..........click on selling on the right of the top page (after hovering)........then look at top right side and you will see a print button.............

 

There is not a print option anymore on individual listings, but of course you can just print the page using the browser print option.......

Do you list with the SYI form? Because lately the price field has been either erasing over and over (much like the duration fields etc) or changing the entered amount on it's own.

Did not know that.  I did use the Sell It Myself form, but previewed my listings each time before listing.  Also, after the first incident, I went and checked all my listings yesterday.  Then overnight there's the second one.  Hrmph.

 

What is the solution, then?  Thanks.

As per SOP on this site the ONLY failsafe is to check all your listings for accuracy once they go live.

Yes, and as I've stated twice, after the first incident, I went and checked all my listings.  Yes, they were correct.  Thanks, anyway.  Can anyone else provide insight on this?  TIA.

 

Also, if there is a thread that addressed this particular issue, can someone please link me to it, because I do not find it.

 

Also, can anyone instruct me on how to print a summary of my listings?  TIA

I have had it where using sell similar and I changed the price and it reverts to the old price while I am still working on the listing but have not have it change after the listing went live.

 

 

I do as others have said, as soon as the listing goes live I take a look and make sure that I have everything correct, especially the quantity and price, many times I find mistakes I have made in the listing this way.

This really is a new one on us. I've had a similar situation where the price I changed didn't fully stick a $59.95 item became $9.95 and was scooped up right away - that's why I try to remember to preview - but I've never had price changes after I've listed.

Never had it happen but I'll keep a watch out.

 

I know I do have to do my listings very slowly because the numbers don't always stick and I wait until it settles on a number before I go on. Many times I have to change it.

I used to just use the selling page & the print option, but since they've added pictures to that section (and made it so you can't change it) I don't use that option anymore.

 

If you use Sm or SMP you can still customise it to show only what you want & print it from there

I've never heard of this either, but thanks for the heads up on the problem.  I'll be watching my listings, too.  If it happened to you, it can happen to others.
