I don't have a store and have searched for an answer to no avail. Does any one know if there is a limit on how many Saved Drafts and/or Unsold Listings you can have at one time?

Thanks.

As far as I know there is no limit on unsolds but they will disappear in 60 or 90 days. I 'think' that there is a limit of drafts but I don't know the number.

I've never run into a limit for number of Unsold listings, only limit is time, 60 or 90 days (depending on how viewed).

Drafts: https://pages.ebay.ca/help/sell/unfinishedlisting.html

up to 7 drafts at a time in the standard listing tool and up to 20 drafts in the bulk listing tool. Time limit: 30 days.

...

Best way to search is google (ebay's own search can be rather useless at times). I use something like ebay.ca + question ("ebay.ca drafts" found the eBay help file for this post).

I know in the past I have had far more than 20 drafts at a time in the bulk listing tool. Does having Selling Manager (the free version, not Pro) increase that limit?

Only 20 saved drafts will show on .ca (the rest are hidden but will be there if you produce more). I currently have over 250 saved drafts(mostly for .ca, a few for .com). These can all be seen in "Drafts" when using the Seller Hub on.com. The one feature that I really like on the .com site is the ability to copy drafts.

I just did a quick test. Please excuse all the large pictures.

First, I created a test draft. I opened it up in the bulk listing tool, which allows me to create copies of the draft.

I then created 49 copies so I would have 50 drafts total. When I went back to my drafts page, it showed all 50 on one screen, though I had to scroll to see them all. I do have mine set to show 50 per page, but I don't know if that's the default.

So, from what I'm experiencing, I can save and view more than 20 drafts at a time on .CA.

I have never been able to view more than 20 draft listings on .ca, no matter whether I set the number at 25, 50 or any other number per page. Never understood that but that's the way it has always been...which is why I use the Seller Hub on.com
