eBay OOS items showing as active

Since the change to GTC for items, I have discovered 6 items with zero stock but are still active

I have spoken with eBay who have suggested I manually end the items

Looks like another eBay glitch
You're only young once, but you can be immature forever :D

    I was afraid of that- I have some MVL items which I can't restock and don't want them rolling over with zero items and using up some of my inclusive listings.

    The worrying thing is that these are not MVLs, They are single items showing 0 stock.

    GTC with zero in stock do roll over each month (active in your selling page) but not visible on the site or search.

    I've never noticed this before and all my listings are GTC.

    If they are active, does that mean you will be charged under the new GTC rules ?


    Edit : I've gone back through my last 90 days orders and until now all the items that have sold out no longer show on my active listings.
