Send Offers feature question

[mr_lincoln]

velvet@ebay, devon@ebay , elizabeth@ebay 

I have a list of items that I sent Offers out on last week and the offers expired on August 13, 2022.  However, those items have NOT been put back on my list of items available to Send offers for again.  I had one Buyer interested in two items he got Offers on but he missed the deadline and the Offers expired ... now I can't Send out Offers again ...

I need the details on how that feature works, what happens to listings after offers expire and how to get them back on the list so Offers can be sent again?????  What happens if we delete Expired listings from the Offers Sent list???

Thank you,

Mr. L

Yes, I shouldn't use "watcher" in that way. Most times for me it is watchers, it's rarely someone viewing mutliple times or adding to card w/o watching, but yes doesnt have to be a watcher.

@simply-the-best-for-you  are you kidding me ...? You think I felt attacked? Lol. You haven't picked up on how ANALytical I am? You are a software/coding type, I'm a scientist (chemist), all i do is poke holes in & test theories. Who else would have the patience to sit there and study what seems like such a trivial anomaly? I take no offense whatsoever and have no problem someone trying to challenge me in the good way or academic way, like you. 

Anytime I am defensive on here, it's usually preempting someone jumping in out of nowhere, taking one tiny detail of my post out of context, blowing it up and carrying on with something I didnt say or is irrelevant, and end up confusing the whole situation.

@ajs_coins_and_alchemy  No, I didn't seriously think you felt attacked.  I saw the LOL you had on there 🙂  Without the LOL, I may have thought that, but I was just making sure 🙂  

I will report back, maybe in a week or so, when I've had more time to list some high attention items & I can pay special attn to this "trivial anomaly".   B/C you REALLY have me curious now!

IF I'm understanding correctly......fairly easy to test

Send me a link to an item, I'll put a watch on it.

I will decline, you end the listing.

Relist, send me a link, I'll put a watch on it

Send me an offer (think it has to be up 2 days)........and see if I get it.....

@dhbookds   Here is an item number that currently has NO Watchers.  334368349552

@dhbookds   Okay, here's where things stand:

-It is NOT on the "Send offers - Eligible" list

-It is NOT on the "Send offers - sent" list 

Thanks for testing this with me!

I've added Best Offer to listings for interested buyers with good results.  Getting Best Offer OFF the listing is sometimes more of a challenge.  Still black-boxing that one to see what the parameters are.  

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once a buyer submits a best offer on a listing and you accept, you can't remove the best offer on that listing. 

You'll need to end it and relist.

Interesting ... what I found on the New Listing tool is Best Offer is set to ON as the Default.  Most of my listings are from my Templates that I created before the New Tool but I recently created some New listings with the New tool and was surprised to see some Offers in my Inbox ... sure enough, they were from the item listings made with the New Listing tool.  I was able to get rid of the setting but off hand I don't recall the steps I took ...

eBay keeps having me send offers on the same items with no traffic days apart, is this a glitch?
