eBay

Trying to create listings and get an Invalid message in item specifics even when I have the bar code.

It would be so nice if eBay was half a concerned about maintaining the site as they are in constantly CHANGING IT.

Giving us features we NEVER asked for or want.

Are you just complaining or do you want help? If you want help tell us a bit more about the invalid message and perhaps one of us can give you suggestions. You mentioned bar code so let me just say UPC codes have 12 numbers so if you are not using the 12 number code you are using an invalid code.

Good Luck Selling!

Both.

However, I backed up my Turbo Lister database and restarted the program and now it works. So, I don't know if that fixed it or if eBay fixed it because the message said try again later when it would not work.

I get these emails from EcommerceBytes almost daily and they are filled with problems on various sites, but mostly eBay. Today's was about a glitch that was preventing buyers with mobile devices getting on eBay.

Also, a story about how eBay is helping Startups in China.

Glad you got it fixed. About E-Bytes just remember they are a third party blog that is slanted toward its user base that is basically the same crowd here in the forum. I read it once in a while and can not recall the last article I read that was not anti-eBay. You need to read a bit deeper into the article because the info they give is rarely accurate to actually how things work here.

eBay also helps sellers in the USA in many ways as well as other countries. You should be glad eBay is reaching out to all users to create a more dynamic marketplace.

Good Luck Selling!
