Not sure what to do about duplicates

I noticed my royal plates had a duplicate listing the other day and assumed it was something I did on my end, so I deleted one. Last night i noticed photos for some post were on the wrong listings THE WHOLE PAGE so I assumed some glitch was going on and left it alone. Tonight I see DUPLICATE listings with different prices and hubby told me just to delete them but I'm afraid if I do it might actually be other listings they may be overlapping by mistake? Has the system just gone loco? I just pray the duplicates don't ironically sale at the same time but then again... what's the chances of that? LMAO Barbara.

Re: Not sure what to do about duplicates

Hi Barbara! Delete the duplicate listings when you find them. It is a well-known eBay glitch but the problem is that duplicates are against eBay policy and there is always the possibility of you getting stung by a bot, then get sanctioned by eBay, and then it is a mess trying to sort out with them that you did not list that duplicate. Meanwhile your listings can get hidden, demoted in Search, account suspension, etc. Below is the Duplicate Listing policy for your perusal.

Re: Not sure what to do about duplicates

Because your photos on eBay are not copy write protected, make sure you are the seller of the duplicates. Are your listings sponsored? If so, because of how the eBay system works, you can see them twice in a search.

Re: Not sure what to do about duplicates

I see what's going on here now, the items I sent over to auction duplicated... So the BIN priced ones remained while the others are in auction, I'm trying to delete them and so far it's working except for my plates for some reason
