Where are my listings?

I've just listed a load of items using auctiva.

When I try to search for them in ebay - the're not there :confused: . I'm searching as I normally do when I'm looking for things.

Have I made some kind of mistake? I'm worried that if I can't find them, no-one else will be able to either!

Sorry if this has been posted before - I've tried searching the thread, but I can't quite phrase it properly!

Thanks

  • If you've only recently listed the items it can take a few hours for them to show up when you perform a search.

    No, these were all things that were scheduled for last night. Some are on a three day auction (the first day is nearly over).

    I'm worried that no-one can see them!

    Either PM me or one of the regulars whose 'green light' is on showing they are online, and give them a keyword and see if your listings show up when they do a straight ebay search.

    does the listing contain any dodgy words?

    omg! my partner had the same thing happen to him 2 weeks ago, he had listed an item and couldn't find it, so he revised it and revised it then revised it again checking the spelling etc... He still couldn't find it. It did stay active for approx 6 days (he put it on a 7 day auction), it even had a few people watching it but funnily enough no bids which i thought was even stranger as the item is worth about £500 and it was started on a 99p listing, needless to say he pulled it off. He wants to put it on again sometime this week but is still miffed about what happened in the first place. :confused:
    It's a relief to know that we weren't the only ones it happened to
