My listings haven't even gone live yet after my holiday..I took of my holiday settings nearly 24 hours ago as well

I did list another 20 or so last night, so fingers crossed.

I got a small selection of books from ebay, I think my OH would move out if I bought 1000 books....

Same here but i thought i would give it a go, they are currently stacked in our hall way, in both our sheds, and the spare room, my oh hasnt started puttering yet but he will :rolleyes:

Im gonna try an auction house next, then if that isnt a success will knock it on the head.

No, but it did have a good whinge a few days ago and did a good deed yesterday so someone is watching me!!!

Does Amazon automatically pull your listing down after 60 days then?
or does the item stay up until sold? or you manually pull it down?

apprentice_tycoon

You were right with your first suggestion - the listing closes after 60 days, unless you sign up to be a Pro merchant seller, the listing stays till sold in this case, it's very easy to re-list from your 'closed' listings page.

Just checked my listings, still not showing after almost 30 hours...

There is mention on the seller discussion board that I'm not the only one with problems, so I have emailed Amazon to ask them if there is anything they can do.

Hi Soo,

By the sounds of it there is something definitely not quiet right with Amazon at the moment.

My sales have disappeared totally only to be replaced with 2 pendings and a cancelled order for a video boxed set (£30!!) - I am hoping the potential buyer will actually go ahead with the order though, she thought the set only contained half what it actually does - can some of these people actually read?

Seriously though I hope your listings go 'live' sometime soon - although don't hold out much hope for any sales.

Still not live..I'm so frustrated.. I sell so little really but on th elaw of averages would sort of expect something would sell in 2 days but without even being visible I am missing out.

I'm just thankful I have several books finishing with bids on ebay tonight so at least I'll have some movement.

:wall: Arghhhhh

My listings are still not live..no response yet from Amazon either.

I'm going to sulk now as I've lost virtually 2 days worth of selling potential and I'm getting cross.

36 hours+ and counting...
