The new country of origin field that they added...
Summary: The discussion revolves around the introduction of a new 'country of origin' field, though the specific content of the posts is not detailed. It's unclear from the discussion what opinions or information are being exchanged. Participants include sapphyres-designer-jewellery, lotzofuniquegoodies, flipistics, and 2nd-time-around-jewelry, but their specific contributions are not provided.
I went to the page that talks about the new country of origin (that may be required to make listings visible to US buyers). How do I bulk edit? It says I can. I can edit the region for manufacturer, but that's a different field. This country of origin is new, and I can't figure out how to add it to my listings.
Also SixBit's last update was Sept 9 and they haven't added this field to that yet (which is where I really want to be doing the update so I can have it saved in my offline version of the listing).
I'm presuming it's not required just yet, since I'm still getting views on my dot com listings from US buyers, but I like to stay on top of the changes, I just find it kind of annoying to edit thousands of listings all the time as new things get required. It's much easier to make the listing properly the first time, but the new requirements come up and need to be retroactively applied to existing listings.

·10 months agoI don't see the field on any of my listings. The only thing I see is Country / Region of Manufacture.

·10 months agoFor anyone having problems updating current listings and seeing this message:
regarding bulk editing handling time across your listings or revising/edit listings, and getting the message “Well, this is embarrassing. We're sorry, but the listing tool isn't working right this second. Please try again later.”
The error message gets seen with any listings with photo issues or in cases of eBay updating number of characters available for a user created item specific. (Unsure if there are other scenarios that can cause this error message so your observations may vary.)
Ticket number: EWATCHOP-282741 (Created approx. 10 days ago).
eBay is working on the issue. No update status. If you get yourself added to the ticket it may help in speeding up getting a resolution.

·10 months agoFor clarification if you are having this issue with updating listings the only way to get it resolved is to be added to the ticket. They have to fix on a case by case basis. Similar to anyone having issues with Expedited Lite double billing.

·10 months agoHow do you get added to a ticket? Is there a special place to do that or do you need to contact eBay support? I have been double billed for at least 5 items using Expedited Lite shipping labels.

I believe there is another post floating around for double charges...not sure if it has ticket number or not. Best way would be to provide a list of charges via Facebook/twitter. I think personally if eBay would be more upfront because that issue has been reported forever.

What would be super most helpful and it would not take much but add a sortable column to sellers hub for that specific. Not perfect but the easiest way for sellers to find vs going 1 by 1 to confirm listing has that info. Very important to remember, it was never required for all items and secondly it is not always known especially for anyone selling vintage or items out of package.
In my situation I have 2000 + listings with maybe 30 % having it pre filled.
