We have lost 13, 939 pictures among our listings. We just got this back from eBay: "eBay only guarantee’s to host the actual image in a listing up to 6 to 18 months seeing as how eBay isn’t a web hosting site, just merely offering the services. eBay does not have the capacity with holding onto that much information. Past this, there is no guarantee that the image will remain being supported. What happens is the site goes to update, and flushes out old information that is deemed no longer relevant. "
This is happening even to listings that have ongoing, more than once a week, sales. I guess something with 8 sales per month is stagnant. We have doubled the amount, in dollars, that we have on eBay i the last years, and our sales are down by 40%. And now we need to add back nearly 14,000 photos, and may need to do this every 6 months.
