Can't see revisions

I sold something recently on Ebay where I had to make a couple revisions.  At the time I made the revision I took the time to message the took 3 bidders and let them know of the contents of the revision and letting them know if it was an issue they could cancel their bid.  I welcomed them to cancel their bid if it was an issue.  I also said that int he revision itself.  Well the item has sold to somebody who started bidding after the revision was posted, and nw I wanted to go back and review the revision to see that it said what I thought it said.  I wrote it but I just wanted to double check.  When I view the listing it just shows the original description, and the list of revisions, but it doesn't show the actual revisions.  How can I view those.

What does that mean- where do you expect to see revisions?

 

When an auction has bids on it you can add to the description and it shows below the description. You can't edit the existing description or item specifics though.

 

Edit to add- I viewed your listing and see 2 additions to the description. Is that what you're looking for?


By the way- keep the drama out of it! No buyer cares about all that and it makes you look very unprofessional. Straightforward facts is all you need.

Thank for your opinion.  I choose to be in front of the drama instead of hit from behind by it.  

As to my actual question I still can't see the "revisions " added to the description.  Just that there were some.  

 

~~~ Ah ~~~
For some reason I was not able to see the scroll bar previously.

You can't revise an auction that has bids on it.  Which is likely why you don't see any revisions.  You would have gotten a message on your screen telling you that you can't revise the description or title, whichever it was you were trying to revise.

 

That would be completely unfair to the existing bidders, no matter if you contacted them to give them a heads up, so it just isn't allowed.

 

You would have to cancel all the bids first.

It is likely that it was always there and just overlooked.

 

BTW, those additional revisions AFTER someone has bid, are not something you can hold those that bid BEFORE the additional description was posted.
