Listing Not Appearing!

[downsizers65]

I've listed an item for an auction sale, and no matter how I search for it, it doesn't come up! How do I get a hold of eBay to complain about this? Thnx!

eBay states in their policy Finding a listing

Listings can take up to 24 hours to index.

It can take up to 24-36 hours to index for some items....what is the new item number and we can tell you if it shows up

[downsizers65]

Thanks for info, RS, but the auction listing had already been up (supposedly) for four days already. 😞

[downsizers65]

The item number is 134868168602. And the auction has already been up for four days, and will be expiring a little past 12 midnight EST.

PS: Just checked again and it still doesn't come up with a search of "Disco Book" and filtered by Auction.

You listed that item in the Antiquarian & Collectible Books category.

A search for disco book defaults to the Books category, which is a separate category.

Aha! I obviously made a rookie mistake. The auction is going to end shortly after midnight EST. Is it going to automatically re-list, which I don't want it to do?

Yeppers...what @eburtonlab pointed out....

I think it is mis-categorized primarily because it may "technically" be vintage, but most searchers will not be in that category for that book.....

in fact, if you search by title, it's in the prime spot #1

Aha! I won't make that mistake again. Will the listing go away automatically when the auction ends, which is what I would like to happen? If not, how can I stop it?
