Video not being approved.

I absolutely hate the way eBay does videos. I take a lot of time shooting and editing video, showing all the tiny little details of my items. I mention the video in my listings. But after the listing is posted, not only does it take time for the video to be approved, it's only after the item being listed do I find out the video was not approved, and for some unnecessary reason, always. And then when a potential buyer sees my listing, sees the mentioning of HD video, and sees no video, I look like an idiot. Most buyers of the items I sell look for newly listed items, and this is all embarrassing. If the way ebay continues to do this, and ebay puts the reputation of my brand and image at stake, I will have to stop using ebay. There are now better options anyway.

Frankly, I'm shocked you are having that much issue!

 

I got the original one to work, but I had to make it look a bit uglier (added visual noise) but it wasn't overly harsh on it.


I cannot fathom why you are having so much difficulty with one item!   I'd laugh with you if I knew you were at the point where its just comically ridiculous.

 

After our interaction yesterday, I took the chance at adding random video to a couple of listings that were active.  I had a couple of DVD TV Show / bundled Movie type listings, so I compiled some video previews of those shows to ADD as a video in the listing.  Keeping in mind, these are related to the listing item, but still could be flagged for copyright I suppose...    Both went through no problem.  And they are even over a min in length!

 

You are welcome to look them over, but its just dumbfounding that yours can't get put through.

Yeah, I have several that are a little over a minute that have posted fine. I don't get it. There is nothing in the video that's not in the two images. I've sold other examples of this type of coin before, without video issues. I have videos of this coin on social media, so at this point, not wasting any more time.
