Changing category in motors section.

I am selling a low mileage scooter and accidentally listed it with a reserve under parts and accessories not the correct section. I think most people trawl all items, I do but some do not. I have tried to list it in a 2nd cat but I am not allowed. Can I change it or am I stuck with it. Only option is to put a free list in the correct catagory to steer people to my sale?? any ideas :confused: It cost over 20 quid to list due to reserve set. Thanks
I came in to this world with nothing and I've still got most of it left. :rolleyes:

    :confused:

    Why can't you change or add a category? Have you already a bid on the item? Is the listing about to expire?

    If you really can't add or change the category your only options are:
    (a) leave it as it is (and hope no one complains)
    (b) end listing and relist in correct category.

    I'm not sure what you mean by a free listing. :confused:
    If what you are thinking of doing is creating another listing offering nothing for sale, just a pointer to your existing listing...DON'T; it will sure to be removed by ebay when someone alerts them.
    (You are not permitted to create listings that doesn't offer something for sale)
