I`m not complain about the policies! But about the WORK of policies and why on my side NOW happens and never before?
Stop writing me the same in every next post, i`m not stupid, as you think i am!
Or just leave the conversation, as you cannot understand why is it...
I don`t want additional info, i don`t need it. I need to find, if anyone else is experiencing the same. Now more clear?
If i say to you, that somethng is 30$ of price, but the next day i change it to 35$, you will tell me, that i`m a cheater, right?
I perfectly know, where i am, what i`m opt in, and how it works. The thing is, why NOW it`s changed, but not at the beginning.
Plus, the whole circus is automated , with big servers. Why something will have 3 days "whatever you call it" time? If the buyer clicked on promoted, then next 30 days price for add fee is active. What 3 days...?
This means, that it`s a manual thing, not automated.. Then other question, why that big servers and so on?
If you can`t understand, for what reason something is posted, just don`t answer it.
For that 3 days, they always can put all the orders in "promoted sale"... If someone stays there and "watch them manually"....for 3 days.
@dj-doggy "For that 3 days, they always can put all the orders in "promoted sale"... If someone stays there and "watch them manually"....for 3 days."
You're so close to almost getting it - here's what it actually should say "For that 3 days, they always can put all the orders [for items enrolled in a Promoted Listings campaign] in "promoted sale"... ."
That's what I meant when I said that there is no way to independently verify - you just have to trust eBay that when they say an action that would incur an ad fee (usually a sale or click) occurred within the conditions set out in their policies, that it actually did happen and you have to pay the fee you've agreed to pay.
If you don't trust that (and I can't blame people who don't), then you shouldn't be using ads or at the very least you should understand the pros and cons of what you've signed up for and how eBay actually says it will work.
The other part you are missing - everything I just explained above is true, regardless of whether it actually happened to you personally before 2-3 months ago or not.
"Why now is it changing?" Simple - nothing has actually changed. Delays in attribution have always been a possibility, it just happens that 2-3 months ago was the first time it happened to you.
eBay does not and will not offer anything beyond what they've put in their public policy which is to inform you that attribution may take 72+ hours and you're agreeing to that by using the product.
And the final piece of the puzzle - because eBay explicitly states in their public policies that ad attribution may take up to 72+ hrs (again note it doesn't say it always will, just that sometimes it can) the experiences you are describing of not having any delays for years and now sometimes having a one day delay are both 100% in line with how eBay says attribution works and thus are not signs of a glitch or "cheating."
If the reason you posted was just to rant about eBay "cheating" you (when that is not true) rather than to get help from other members to understand what is actually happening and why you are experiencing what you are experiencing then yeah, you're right, I definitely don't understand because that would seem like a giant waste of time to me. 😂
