I listed a "Mindi Abair - Wild Heart" CD and can't find it. Can you look and see if it comes up for you? A bunch of mine are not showing up at all. I ended it and relisted it again and still no luck in searching. Thanks.

Not seeing Mindi either. Someone else passed this on to me a few days ago but have been unable to confirm the whole story.
Wonder if its possibly connected.

Sidenote: As mentioned previously there still seems to be a major discrepancy by doing a custom search on dot com vs the same search on dot ca. Both to same location.

Also "Kashtin - Innu" I can't find either. This is bad. My sales have really dropped off.
09-25-2021 02:47 AM
I don't see either of them. I only saw 1 Canadian seller for the "Kashtin - Innu" and it wasn't your musicyouneed ID or your second one you posted with on this thread.
I was searching on .ca

Thanks, they are listed on .ca with shipping both to Canada and US so they should show up on .ca and .com. Not sure what to do here. I cancelled one of them and did a sell similar and the other I revised and neither worked.

I just checked for Mindi Abair on both sites and found none by anybody.....
09-25-2021 11:06 AM
I just checked on ebay.ca and found 184 listings for Mindi Abair under music with a general search.
With the advanced search I had 215 listings show.

OMG this is why I shouldn't do things before I've had my coffee....
The searches I did earlier were accidentally restricted to items running under my own ID (I bookmark my own searches for when I'm looking my stuff up to make sure I'm not listing something a 2nd time).
When I did proper searches, under both .COM and .CA I get lots like YPDC did, but none of yours.
As a note, when I search Mindi Abair under your (this) ID I still do not find it.....

Me neither -- best wishes.

Sidenote: As mentioned previously there still seems to be a major discrepancy by doing a custom search on dot com vs the same search on dot ca. Both to same location.
This morning for mindi abair - wild heart cd it shows 8 Listings in North America, 31 listings located Internationally. (Dot ca). None included located in Canada. Shipping to a Canadian address. Only additional side option is check box for Free International Shipping. Truthfully can't remember that being a thing.
Same mindi abair - wild heart cd search on dot com shows 19 listings with best match. 20 listings to Canada. (Same 20 with closest) . 31 listings Internatially. 8 listings located checking the N. America tab.. In all of my noted searches, None located in Canada.
Some kind of search consistency between browsers, sites and available site option would be awesome but possibly only an unachievable dream.

Note: (Searched on a PC in Edge)
PS. Because of my recent substantial drop in sales ( The last 5 months) I have routinely been checking dot ca for my items. (Not in invisible mode) and dot ca routinely brings up the majority of items first or close to. Searching dot com much farther down the list. My standard search criteria is Closest First. It past the point of being frustrating months ago. In speaking to variety of sellers they have reported similar issues with eBay's Search feature.
Disclaimer. Majority of my items are OOAK so searching using Google is not really a consideration for those kinds of potential buyers.

Do you have either of those listed right now? I don't see them in search or when I specfically look at your listings. How quickly are you looking for them after you list and/or when you revise. Because its a newish ID it may take longer to show up and to reindex??
09-25-2021 06:01 PM
It finally showed up after 3 days. Thanks for all your help.

Listings state created on 25th. Does that match the new listing emails you hopefully received?

I just listed another one She & Him Classics and it is not showing up. I just might have to wait 2 days.

Do you list your items using one of the mobile apps? Or do you list it using a web browser on a computer?
If you use the mobile apps, maybe try creating a listing from scratch using a computer.
If you use a computer already, maybe create a few different listings with different web browsers. See if that results in the listings showing up.
Maybe try deleting your cookies and all info related to the eBay site. I know this sounds ridiculous.
All of the above is a Hail Mary, but especially with all the changes they are making with the eBay site, I noticed it can be a bit buggy lately.

Thanks, list it using a web browser (chrome) on a desktop computer. I'll clear my cookies and see if that helps. Definately buggy.

There have been a series of webpage glitches as of late. From work in progress listing creating freezing when you go to send, to messages that are new but ebay says are over 90 days old to even the back button not working. The list goes on. It's hard to keep track.
As for conflicts in listing counts with the various pages displaying data differently with every page, thats been going for over a year. Really painful if it's attached to a major update and it takes eBay time to recognize and correct. I blame it mostly on tape delay. 🙂

I listed a "She & Him - Classics" CD yesterday and it is still not showing up. How can we sell anything if buyers can't see it???????
