Cannot Update Listing

John_T_5

I decided to extend the length of time my auction was running for, I have 22 hours to go before it expires and no bids, but when I try to submit the updated listing it keeps telling me that the category, which I haven't changed, isn't listed on eBay Express.

I didn't list the item on eBay Express and the category is Health & Beauty > Health Care > Family Planning/ Contraception > Condoms

Anyone any ideas what the problem is?

It sounds like the problem is ebay itself

As far as I am aware you can update your listing but not the length of the auction once it has been listed. The easiest thing to do is if it does not sell you will be able to relist it with one click of the mouse in the "unsold" section of "MyEbay"

Hope this helps

you can adjust the length of time once it has been listed, I do it quite a lot, but there is a cut off point which I thought was less than 12 hrs left but it looks like it could be sooner

The fact that the error is mentioning ebay express seems pretty strong evidence for an ebay glitch to me.

I've updated the length of listings, i.e if I've started them on 3 day and they haven't sold, I've changed it to 5 or 7.

I think Ebay let you do that because there's no listing price difference based on whether you list for 1,3,5,7 or 10 days.

I thought that but can't help it - but make sure the condoms have been laundered to Ebays high standards.
