Listing not showing up in search

[jamesg419]

This has been going on for two weeks with this one listing. Had it as buy it now with hundreds of views and 12 watchers. Put it on auction and it was taken down because I didn't have "nudes" listed in item specifics; subject. So I relisted it with that and I have gotten zero views and zero watchers. Have been told by eBay to cancel and relist as sell similar. Tried that, no help. Cancelled and started a new listing from scratch, nothing. I'm thinking a glitch from the first time it was taken down. I did have one person view it and place a bid but he went to my store where it is visible to bid. No other views and no result from item number.

Thank you... much more info than in this post. >> Listing not showing up in search - The eBay Community 

Sit tight for others...

Yes, sorry accidentally hit on that other one. Here is item number 225594408121

The listing is there but not searchable yet.

According to the update time it could take "up to" 24 hours before it's searchable.

That would be about  8:00PM pacific time tonight.

If it's not searchable by then, then you can start to worry.

FYI every time you change/update the listing, the clock re-sets again and it could be another 24 hours.

This is the 5th time in two weeks I've listed this. I've waited 5 days, 4 days and 3 days and still no show. I know this one hasn't been 24 hours yet but that is not the issue.

"This is the 5th time in two weeks I've listed this."

Keep listing this or updating it and the clock re-sets.

Why don't you leave it alone and see if it's searchable by 8:00PM pacific time?

I bet you it will be.

It looks like ebay has deemed this as an adult item.

Are adult items even searchable?

It was getting interest (but no bids) as an auction.

The auction was taken down (by eBay?) because of a missing Item Specific.

Relisted as Fixed Price, there has been not interest.

Have you tried correcting the IS, then relisting as an Auction?

Have you contacted the Viewers of that Auction and offered the item (painting or print?) with a small discount? It's probably too late, but you'd be no worse off.

Have you contacted the Viewers of the Auction, which should be in your Unsolds, letting them know that the item is once more available?

Keep in mind Viewers View and Watchers Watch.

Only Buyers Buy.
