bulk relist wants to charge me fees when it shouldn't

For the last little while, when I try to bulk relist stuff on ebay.com, the bulk relister has been trying to charge me insertion fees for all of them, when I had more than enough remaining free listings available this month. So I've been forced to tediously relist things on ebay.com one at a time. Just now, the same thing happened to me on ebay.ca's bulk relister. So now I have to relist EVERYTHING one at a time or risk getting charged for things that should be free. This should not be happening, and it should not be taking this long to fix.

Another sample point:

I just did a bulk relist on eBay.CA -- no fees charged, all came from my remaining free listings for the month.

 

Tech note: using an old version of firefox on a desktop computer.

To be clear, it's only showing the "estimated" fees. I don't know if I'd actually be charged them if I went ahead with the bulk relisting.

Here's what I see with another bulk relist:

No idea what to suggest. Especially since listing one-at-a-time works for you.

 

Maybe trying a bulk relist of 2 items to see what happens.

Just did another bulk relist of 15 items.

 

Initial cost $0.00 (using free listings) before I modified anything.

 

Converted all to 5 day listings -- new total was $0.34

Checked and found one listing had a listing fee (30 cents + tax)

 

Converted that problem listing back to 30 day and the fee total dropped to $0.00

Changed that listing back to 5 day and the total correctly remained at $0.00

 

This appears to be an intermittent temporary flaw, possibly due to eBay computers not talking to each other quickly enough.

 

One of those problems that can make a computer tech go bald...

This is happening to me on both .ca and .com I decided to proceed after the estimated fees and click ok.  Once the listings were listed it showed the fees charged to be $0.00.  I double checked my fees that have not been invoiced and there was no change.  Looks like a glitch but hopefully it will get fixed soon.

I tried it with just 2 items, Dennis, but the same thing happened.

Good to know, edubb101.

 

edit: I just tried it again with 2 items and it worked. Hopefully the problem is fixed.

As another poster suggested if you continue to the end on bulk relist the incorrect fees should change to zero on the last screen.
