VERY,VERY STRANGE!

I need some help. I just listed a bikini 3 hours ago and it usually takes 13 hours to show up in the US and Canada. Someone just bid on it and I never gave them the item number. How did they find it when it's still not showing up anywhere???

If you read the thread that I started regarding my listing not showing up you might find similarities. My listing would not show up under anything but"copper bracelet". It would not show up in any other combination of keywords that I used to find it in a general search--not even the exact title. During the search, an eBay offer came up to send me an email when this exact item was listed (Dahh!). I clicked on it to have them do that and still haven't received one. This listing did get a bid so someone must have seen it in the general category above. But they could not see it somewhere else. And I still haven't heard back from eBay regarding this issue.
Check your listing under different combinations of keywords and see if it shows up on one of them.
