How to make sure my Auction Re-list

[adlane7]

How do I make sure my Auction Re-list at the end of it 30 day period, as one can never find it in unsold after it expires.  I have lost 2 Auctions that way in the last 90 days.

I assume you mean Fixed Price listings, you don't have any Auction listings.

Fixed Price listings never end unless you do it manually, they renew every month on the same day that they were originally listed. If you manually end them before the renewal date they will show up in your Unsold section.

I forgot to add, this listing for James Dean stamps has been running since at least 2021.

So does  an Auction Listed at $90 or Best Offer Qualify as Fixed Listin?  It is just these 2 that never relist, the other 48 relist just as you say.

are the ones that will not relist.

Both of those listings are currently active and available for purchase.

This one you have listed twice you need to delete one of those right away

This is the Brother printer, it's showing Sold on December 20th (also I can see it sold in November as well).

That was a local pickup only, did those sales fall through?

You listed it again today (you did switch the Gallery image) see the link above

Two other points

1 - When you create a new listing, if you want to see how it looks, click on a link in the Seller Hub, there is a lag of anywhere from a few minutes to 24 hours for listings to come up in a regular search.

2 - Get the terminology right because it's confusing when you ask a question.

Auction - A listing that buyers can Bid on, auction last 1,3,5,7,10 days (7 days is the most common). Auction listings generally end at the end of the period. For new sellers eBay may automatically relist these up to 8 times, this is ONLY for new sellers.

Fixed Price - A listing with a set price that anyone can buy at any time, these listing automatically renew every month until sold or ended.

All your current listings are Fixed Price, Best Offer can be applied to both types of listings but it does not otherwise change the listing format in any way.

Thanks, I did not see that one was already there, so I created it again.  It was just the 1 Brother Printer Auction, and that is explainable as  I shipped both of those out which closed those listings since it is a Fixed listing Qty =1, and not of 5 which I have.    So my query  was a Total False Alarm.  Sorry, just could not figure out why they were not there(even though 1 was hiding from me somehow).
