I don't have an answer for you but I know you have posted about this a few times now, not sure why you seem to be alone in this bizarre mystery!! I will definitely let you know if it ever happens for me and please let us know if you ever find out why!! Hopefully it is a premonition of good things to come for you....sales still going strong into 2025!

@triber I wasn't really sure where you were seeing this but I have now discovered it is in the "You got paid" confirmation emails.
I can confirm that 50% of my sales have sometime in the futre in them, mostly May and June 2025.
I can also confirm that it is ONLY .COM items for me that are wrong and ALL .COM items are wrong. All .CA items are correct. (I had a good weekend so far, 20 items sold, 10 to .COM all wrong, 10 to .CA all correct)
These are only informative emails, I don't really check the details in stuff, mine have also probably always been wrong same as yours.
I only keep an eye on whether the $$$ are showing up and coming out to me, I don't usually look at the emails in detail beyond the address, item number etc.
So you can rest easier that it is not just you.
devon@ebay more information to add to this, I can't remember if you've notified folks or not.

I'm seeing that since i started selling 2 years ago. Always been like that. Very often in my sold listings i have sales popping that i made weeks/months before. I'm sure i would take a look and find many.

Hi @ricarmic! I know that this issue had happened before and was reported resolved by some sellers but if this is still occuring I will be sure to get this over to the correct team so they can have another look into.

@ricarmic Thank you for that. I am also going to have this reported on my end too so that way if there is any site-wide tickets opened I will make sure to come back and share it here for sellers to see.

Same here, just my .com sales, but honestly never noticed it before you and Triber mentioned it.

It's always a relief to know that I am not the only one getting these. Thanks for letting me know.
