Monthly Listing Limit

[nowandthens]

My limit is 2000, woke up this morning and it says I already listed 1800. I only have 500 listed - this has been happening for months now and it is making my Anchor store useless. Any ideas what's happening?

Do you get refunded if you close your store before all the days in January are over and you were already charged for? If not, do you have the month to use the (1500 listings) you paid for?

How often have you listed the items? Each listng counts as 1 and if you relist three times....well it adds up.

How do you expect anyone to figure it out when you are using a posting id?

Thanks for linking, but I'm still looking for an answer. These are similar but different issues.

Any multi-quantity listings? A single listing with a quantity of 20 counts as 20 towards your Selling Limits.

No relevant if he's talking about Selling Limits. Relisting only count towards free/included listings and have no bearing on your Selling Limits.

Relists don’t count against limits? I thought they did. 

[lookng2015]

Of course they do.

Yes indeed.

Also (as pointed out in the earlier thread) for multi-item listings  all the items will count against their listing limit even though only  one insrton fee is coutned against their monthly free insertions.

[lookng2015]

Maybe they also had GTC listings rolling over at the beginning of the month.

Thanks for confirming. Wouldn’t make sense for them not to count.

[nowandthens]

Thanks but still doesn't explain it. Not GTC listings, not multi-item. The only possible thing is that these have been relisted more than once and each relist is counted toward the item (say you have an item that's relisted, it must count as three items if it's been relisted 3 separate times; not sure why it wouldn't just count as one toward monthly limits if it's only relisted once that month.

Relists count towards your free/included listings. They do not count towards your Selling Limits unless you have reached your selling limits.

If you have a Selling Limit of 10 items. You can list them at 1 day duration and relist them every day when they expire and if you don't sell any of them you can do this forever and not reach any limits.

There is no such thing as a 'listing limit' as the only limits to listing are because of Selling Limits on an account. You can list as much as you want as long as you do not exceed your Selling Limits or have more than your Selling Limit listed at one time.

In OPs case, relisting is not going to cause him to exceed his Selling Limit, but it will cause him to go over any Free/Included listings (but I don't think he's talking about that).
