Duplicate Relist Email

[lotzofuniquegoodies]

Just received a duplicate relist email. A first for me. Confirmed both include the same listing id number so it did only get listed once. Now if only we could get rid of the entirely useless Check your special offers and make more money! portion of the email header. Heyyyy, just saying!!!

Yep it has been doing this a few days now, for me as well, happening every 1 in 10 or 1 in 20 relisted.....

2 of 8 duplicated this morning.....

I am having the same problem. Also sold a book and it came up twice on notifications, I thought I had sold 2! Must be a glitch.

For me, my main concern is with the possibility of accidentally, double relisting an item due to the fact that the Unsold display is smaller than the actual Active Listings Display. Very difficult on eyesight that is not getting any better with age. Has become very easy to make a mistake during this process caused by this new way of viewing. Find it's much safer to relist/sell similar, one at a time vs in bulk.

I did have an accidental double relist. Somehow my mouse/computer were near end of life and one click caused two instantaneous clicks, and of course and immediate duplicate listing violation...so I'm extra sensitive in that department still....

Another strange observation I have made recently, if, with having eBay windows still open you reboot your system, when you return, have come back to find relists displaying in progress re-opened and available for completion even though they were completed previously. Then I've just confirmed yay or nay and cancel as required. Not sure why or how this could happen. Another one of those automagically things!

You know you can change the size of the print on your screen, right? Mine is under View-> Zoom.

From time to time I put all my listings in alphabetical order and scroll through them for duplicates

Did that yesterday and removed three duplicated listings. Whew.

I have done the switch size in the past. Mostly this problem is an annoyance especially working on a number of relists/sell similars at the same time. Just would think there should be consistency between screens. Normally if you accidentally create a duplicate listing the system lets you know....But not always. Makes me believe any changes like this are not implemented as a team effort.
