Condition

Would some of you please take a minute and tell me if you see the item listed below?   I added it yesterday and although it shows up in my list of "Active" I cannot find/see it when I try to search by either Item # or keywords.

Thanks in advance.

How weird!  I can't get it to come up either by keyword/s or item number, but yes, that's the item.  Thank you both so much for taking the time to look and let me know.

It shows up for me by keyword. And further, it shows up for me as the top item in Best Match, Lowest Price, and Newly Listed searches.

Oh, wow!   That's great!   Still don't know why I can't find/see hide nor hair of it, but glad to know at least *it is* showing up!

Morning, Good. I have a question...there are a lot of threads from OPs saying they cannot call up their listing(s) in search, yet seasoned posters on here usually can access. Would this problem have to do with whether you are signed into eBay or not signed in to find in search?  I ask because I put an item up yesterday. I was signed in and knew it would not zoom or do the "roll" of multiple images because they are borderline as to size required by eBay. I know my pix are too small to zoom and will not roll. This morning I was NOT signed into eBay (like a buyer), and my images don't zoom but do roll. 

If I am signed in, no zoom, no roll. Signed in no zoom, but the rolling gallery works. Just asking. Thanks.

I can see it.

So is it a new item or vintage ?

You've got "new" in the item condition.

This is ebay's definition of new >> " Condition

New

A brand-new, unused, unopened, undamaged item (including handmade items). 

----------------

Also, some potential buyers might think it's a repro tin globe because of the "new" item condition..

You might try a different browser and/or clearing cache........sometimes that helps when you can't see something everyone else does.......

Hi.   Both actually.  The bank is new, old stock.    My grandparents used to run a small five and dime store and after they closed it they offered us kids the chance to take whatever we liked of their left-over stock.  I took a couple of boxes of these globes as I remembered having one like them as a child.  I just came across them again when cleaning house and since I don't need two dozen of them I thought others might be interested on eBay.

Definitely not a repro - one look at the map on the globe and it's obvious that these were produced 60-70 years ago given the identification/naming of various countries on the map.  

The bulk packaging of these was still sealed when I got them; they never were packaged or sold  in their own box/plastic bag.  You just bought one of them off the shelf.   So, while they date back to the '50s/'60s, they in fact are brand new, never displayed, sold, or used which is why the condition noted is "New" and a reference is included in the description that the items are new, old stock.

But since you were unsure about their condition/provenance after reading the description, I did add some additional clarification to the description which hopefully will also be helpful to others.   Thanks for taking the time to look and your feedback!

Thanks for the suggestion @dhbookds.  I did try that -- three different browsers in fact -- but still wasn't able to see it.  Will try flushing my cache/s again and perhaps re-start my computer all together, though if others *are* seeing the listing, that was my primary worry/concern.

I see it too in your items and by item number.

While looking at the details to see if it was a location issue (you maybe in Alaska. Hawaii, etc) I noticed you don't ship (at least for that item) to Alaska or Hawaii, , even though it's First Class Pkg shipping (no increased costs or delivery delays) and you ship to Peru and Bolivia (the lands of lots of mail gets stolen and not delivered)?

Just curious on what's behind that. Process of elimination? - you have had trouble with sales to Alaska and Hawaii, but none with the others (yet)?

Thanks for letting me know you can see my item @berserkerplanet.

No, I don't ship to Alaska or Hawaii.  Just have had too many problems with timely delivery to those locations.  Peru/Bolivia?  Not sure why it is showing I will ship there because I don't/won't.   Will need to check and see why it's saying that.  Thanks for the head's up!
