I just recently created an eBay Account, because I just moved to Canada and want to sell something. However right after I created my Account it got suspended, but after I called eBay my Account got recovered. After the recovery, I created a listing, and even after 3 days me and friends of mine were not able to find my product on eBay, and we tried a lot of different keywords and filters. I ended the listing 2 times and created it again, but I am still not able to find it. I hope someone here knows what to do.
Here is the link to the product. By using the link, you should be able to find it, but if you try to search for it you won't.

That may be a blessing.
Selling high value items in a high fraud category is not a Good Thing for new sellers.
Experienced sellers will tell you to do some buying and build up at least ten positive feedback before attempting to sell.
You should also rethink your shipping rate of $200 . Most savvy buyers would realize that shipping is based on weight and dimensions and your "mini desktop" doohickey would not require that kind of shipping cost.
(You could bring it to my house on Vancouver Island by ferry for less.)
EBay does tell new sellers that new listings may not 'index' and appear on the site for up to 24 hours, and the full period is often used up when the product is in a high fraud category.
And.
No Returns does not mean No Refunds.

Hey,
First of all thanks for your answer.
Unfortunately I won't be able to follow your advice to build up some ratings, since as I said I am just temporary in Canada. About the High Shipping cost: As I mentioned in the Description, since there is Equipment included, I will need to send 4 Packages. I am also aware that it will probably cost less than 200 CAD. However I also said, that I will send the buyer the bill of the Shipment and the difference between the bill and the 200 CAD will of course be refunded to the buyer. I never shipped anything in North America before, which is why I rather collect more money first than asking for more later.
I am also aware that no return does not mean no refund.
I am indeed an experienced eBay User back in Germany, unfortunately I can't use my Account in North America.
Yours sincerely

Why can't you use your German eBay account?
You do not have to be in Canada to list and sell on eBay.CA
I am allowed to list on ebay.DE even though I just have a Canadian ebay account.

All you have to do to list on dotDE from Canada is change the location of the goods -- your earlier listing would have shown Germany-- and, using Flat Rate Shipping, enable shipping to Canada (and probably the USA).
You will have to include shipping to Germany, but since it will be very high, don't expect German interest.
Oh, and of course, describe in English.
Hmm-- could I suggest using more paragraphs in your Description. Dense textblocks are very hard to read-- one reason I didn't read yours carefully.
Many of the sellers here list on both the US and Canadian sites, as well as France, UK and Australia. There are challenges but no really difficult problems.
Oh- and don't suggest that you don't know the cost of shipping. It doesn't encourage buyers who will fear you will back out if you underestimated.
Can you weigh and measure the boxes you have packed?

When I searched asus gaming pc your listing came up on best match on both .ca and .com. Are you and your friends searching as if your location was in Canada or the US? Europeans won’t see the listing as it doesn’t ship to there.

Hello,
I seems like my listings are finally working. I have also phoned the customer support, which had told me that it can take a few days, until the listings are visible after an account has been suspended. I thank you all for your help! 🙂
Yours sincerely
