Key updates to the eBay User Agreement:

.....as of earlier this year, 

• We’ve made it clearer how we address attempts to bypass our policy on Offers to buy or sell outside eBay.
• We may scan and block member-to-member messages sent through our platform to prevent fraud or violations of our policies.
• We may automatically renew your fixed-price listings unless your listing sells out or you cancel your listing.
• If you use our product catalog information in your listing, we may update this information in your listing when we update our catalog.
• We’ve made some changes to our company structure that are reflected in the eBay entities you are contracting with when using eBay.

YES IT SAYS: 

• We may automatically renew your fixed-price listings unless your listing sells out or you cancel your listing.

Is this not a huge problem as we seller who have stores on eBay platform? How did we agree to not be sovereign?

Well that would do it I guess...but I had listings relisted without my 'concent' or 'knowledge' rather, that I have hardly sold, definately not 25 of them! This to me is a problem because I'm always running out of listings, it sure doesn't give me a sense of security in my own store when eBay co-op at my cost...they should at least notify me and let me opt out. "Quick Version" of the listing form includes this feature then I should have known I guess. eBay used to be so easy now it's too complicated and tricky. It feels like i'm being controled by robots...at my cost...

So, if you haven't sold moe than 25 items in the past twelve months, and choose fixed price, BUT don't use the Quick version form and use the Advanced form, you don't run into this situation of Ebay relisting it arbitrarily.

I hope I have that right; and I believe that was my original understanding of that when it came out, because it is kind of disconcerting to think a listing will be relisted without your conscious effort and desire to list it.
