Listings not searchable. Show on summary but not in store

So I noticed several listings I made around 12/10 were getting very little action.  Then I figured out the listings were not searchable. Moreover, my store summary reflects 148 listings, but if you click in my name to view 'other items for sale' you will see only 136 - a difference of 12 which is the number of unseachable listings.  Any advice appreciated.

How are those items priced in comparison to other sellers/listings?  I've recently seen a grossly over priced listing vanish from all searches, though it it still available in my Watch List.

OK kids, time to get the Dodge loaded up again. I hear 'Poppy's By the Tree' calling. This trip might be a long one too.

These are very low volume items (rare football cards) in many cases less than 20 exist and some have no active listings. But this is the case with many of my listings that are showing and searchable.

When I clicked your "see other items" there are 148. Someone else suggested it may be an over-priced card that has been listed for a long time without views. It has been reported that Ebay began removing  stale items no one will ever buy due to the price. Your cards look to be very over-priced so it coudl be possible. Most likely there are none hidden, but you will need to provide info on the ones you say are missing so we can find them for you.

Interesting.  So all the unseachable cards are the "2017 panini white sparkle".  I just searched the White Sparkle Drew Brees and the Ameer Abdullah and no listings are found.  I have also tried relisting them on the site instead of the app.  Just find it odd that none of my 2017 white sparkle listings are searchable.

When did you originally list them?  (First time ever here).

Most were listed on 12/10.  I have since relisted the brees and Abdullah in an effort to fix the issue.

"Ships within 24-hours of received payment."

 

 

Really?  That's your entire descripion?  Not a single word about the product?

 

That could have a lot to do with things.

Are you suggesting that the description that I have used for 5 years might be why the items are not searchable? These are sports cards..... There is nothing else to say about them. The picture and title say it all.

As I thought. Your items are not hidden. 2017 Drew Brees White Sparkle is #2 of 2 listed. The other person who replied is correct. Without a description your buyer base lessens as most hit the back button with no description or over-priced.

Well that's good to know.  Which platform are you using? App, chrome, Safari? I just searched utilizing the iPad app, and then safari with no luck.  Thanks.

This is bizarre.  Even when I clicked on your link, none of my listing appeared.  Then I tried adding Ameer to the search and got this:image.jpeg

Sounds like it's that relevancy algorithm of Cassini's at work again.

Have you tried logging totally out and then searching?
