Bulk edit drafts category errors and no item condition available, can not bulk edit / complete drafts.
Single drafts missing item condition and return policy not carried over.
I will / should have multiple items sitting in my draft folder from the migration tool throughout the day / week as I move them to .com for you to refer to.
Please see my recent post...
On another note the Assurant insurance option showing up right on the middle of my listings without my permission on random listing on listings carried over to .com is garbage, I don`t care if it`s being around for a couple of years. Enough garbage to contend with on ebay.

I am not experiencing this but I find this member's question to be alarming. Can you comment?
Er, I meant to say at least say good morning first. Good morning!

I used my stores subscription shipping supply coupon right away and I was pleased to see the bundles of boxes, envelopes and tape. I ordered two sets, and I was highly tempted by the holiday-themed items as well. Good work. The new bundles that are priced to meet a Basic Store subscription are great, thank you for that.

Hi Raphael, I was wondering if you ever found out why some searches on some sellers show how many watchers and then other sellers it doesn't show? I have several with 3 watchers and one with 6 watchers. I have over 60 listings being watched right now, all ranging from 1 to 6 watchers.

Hello Raphael,
I have a problem and i hope you could help me out and advice.
I have an open case for a Ricardo Beverly Hills California 2.0 .The customer opened a return request under "doesnt match descriptions or photos" and then explained in the comment section that she tried to match her item (Ricardo Beverly Hills Santa Cruz 5.0 ) with the one that she bought from me.I do want to accept the return request but i the only one thing that i dont agree with is about the shipping,which is that i need to pay for return shipping.In this case if i accept the return i need to recover both shipping costs.With the buyer we communicated and she informed me that she sent the item to back to me.And the case remains open,we got in touch with eBay customer service to reply on the request,but they didnt help us a lot in this case which is very complicated on our side.We are looking for solution since monday and so far we dont know what to do.If we accept the return request as it is we would need to recover both shipping.What we could do when we have a case like that?
We will really appreciate any help or advice.Thank you in advance

Hi, I just got a pin back from the post office saying there was no such number so I contacted the buyer and it turns out they have the wrong address on their paypal page. It's missing a number. I replied asking for them to send the shipping cost to me since it was their mistake not mine but haven't heard anything since. Are there any rules or guidelines for this?

Hi,
I have a "display" question. From time to time some people have asked where the search option "Most Bidders" has gone. I don't ever remember seeing it but they say it used to be in the "Sort" list of things like "Newly listed" and "Distance nearest" for choosing search options.
Have you heard anything or would you know anything about it? Is searching for auctions by "Most Bidders" going to be removed and no longer a choice?

Good afternoon,
On the evening iof September 30 some of us saw a promotion for free listings on selling manager which started at midnight and ended 3 hours later. The promotion was no longer showing in the morning in current or ended promos. I don't imagine that ebay meant to do a 3 hour promotion so was the date set up wrong or.....? Should some of us actually be getting a similar promo right now?

Oh how could I have missed that??? SORRY EVERYONE for asking an already answered question. I probably read it and forgot. I do read these things but it seems I can't always keep it all in. Sigh. I miss my memory. 🙂
Thank you pjcdn2005 for the answer reminder!

Good evening.
This popped up on one of my listings overnight:
I've revised it, as ebay has requested. What else do I need to do in order to make this 'note' disappear? I like to use that area for information that I think is important and, like I said, I already did as ebay asked of me.
Thank you,
Maureen

For me it seems to be much easier to remember what happened years ago vs what happened last month so I totally relate to people not remembering things!

Your taking what their asking to literally, I received these eBay notes also.... It's an automatic response sent when a listing has been for sale for 16 months or longer.
You don't need to respond to it, nothing is going to hap[pen, but if you feel you can improve on a listing then by all means revise it.

Now long does it take to drop-off? Will that note never disappear now that it is 'tainted'?

Do I have to 'end' the listing to get rid of the note? I have 13 Watchers on that item but it's one of only five on ebay and probably the only in Canada so it wouldn't be that hard for people to find again.
10-05-2016 06:59 PM
You probably have to end it and list it as new to get the reminder taken off. That might help it in search too.
10-05-2016 07:03 PM
I guess I could end it right before it is due for GTC renewal. It's make-work for no good reason though. I revised it as asked. There are only five on ebay so it's not like one needle in a haystack.... More importantly, I am willing to wait until it sells on my terms. There was a limited number produced so it's only going to become more valuable as time wears on. I guess this might be a useful note if I didn't already know it had been listed for more than a year.

Raphael, I sent you a question via email about the Standing Committee on Canada Post. I'm staring dumbly at a form that needs to be completed and submit by Friday. Can you have a look at that for me please? It's just one question, a small one, easy to answer.
Thank you,
Maureen
