Why my listing isn’t live on ebay

[mskexports]

I recently listed one item on ebay and told my cousin about them.  He then did a search to look at my items.  He could not see them.  I called ebay and they told me it takes 24 hours for your items to appear.  A week later and they still are not visible.  I have had this problem and nobody on ebay can help me.  They simply do not know.

I would advise ebay sellers to have another person do a search for their items to see if they are visible on ebay.  I can see them myself but buyers can't see them.

Anybody have any suggestions on how I can correct this glitch?

Is this your item? https://www.ebay.com/itm/375639582854

You're located in India but only ship to the United States, so since you don't ship to your location, it won't show you that item when you search by default.  You have to change your destination for shipping before it will show in a search.

I don't know if you want to fix your shipping so that you can ship to at least buyers in India, if not worldwide.

You don't ship to your own country, so you won't find the listings.

I can see one listing.  Perhaps it's because you don't ship to your country so you can't see the listing.  For what it's worth, you can buy these cheaper on other sites and not have to wait weeks/months to have it delivered from India, if that is indeed where it's coming from.  If you are drop shipping, I would be careful.  Lots can go wrong with new sellers & drop shipping.  You have stock photos which is usually the dead give away.  Don't get your account restricted before you sell anything.  Lower your prices if you want to be competitive.

Good luck

You do realize that your listing states free shipping to the US for that item?

When you list on ebay.com the domestic shipping section refers to shipping to the US.

[buyselljack2016]

appears that the seller has that figured out (in)

$35 + $107

[mskexports]

No, they take too much charges

[pjcdn2005]

I don't think so.  But if so, the $145 with free shipping means that they would in the hole after paying eBay fees.

@mskexports 

No what?   Your listing DOES show free shipping to the US. Here is a screen shot

from your listing under shipping details.   If you have included the shipping cost in the item price you did not account for the eBay fees that you will be charged when an item sells.

I looked at the products you are producing (your website).....what you need to find is a US based distributor of similar types of items that will buy from you in bulk to distribute in North America. Then if you have the capacity you can ship via ocean freight container load. That is the ONLY way it will work for you, direct to consumer from India will never be feasible.

It's been a long time (like 40 years) but I was importing from Asia and at that time a 20 foot container could be shipped for about $1000, partially assembled you could probably fit a few hundred products in one of those containers. No doubt it's more nowadays but still, instead of a shipping cost of US$100 you might be looking at a tenth of that per unit.

You used AI for your description and it states that you are selling a UNIT QUANTITY OF 50.

You need to give buyers ACCURATE info and should be proofreading every description.

 Some buyers will expect 50, as they should.

@mskexports 

You need to stop inserting your website info in your replies.  It's against the forums rules. 

[mskexports]

Yeah i got it I didn’t know that i will be very careful next time

thanks!

[mskexports]

Yes I used Ai to completed my description but i have 50unit to sell in my store
