New Account, Listing Taking Forever to go live (Over 24 hours)

bougie · #1 02-02-2020

So I just opened up a new account on eBay, listed an item last night and it is taking the longest I have ever seen it.

I put the live until cancelled which starts at 30 days. However, the time left is 27d 23h and it is still not showing up as live. Usually it is between 12-24 hours if not immediately when I list an item, as it is for most people.

I have no idea why it is taking so long but hoping for answers. Did not receive any messages from eBay, did not revise the listing at all.

Just wait it out, unfortunately it seems like the norm now

I had to wait 36-48 hours on my first few listings on my new account, happened a few times from what I remember. Don't know what the reason is, but regardless its happening

"The norm now" means its the normal activity now

yes , takes 30-48 hours for first listing to show up in search after a reinstatement. Then after that you should be good.. But be warned, if you go too fast, they'll shut you down. They review the notes.

I didn't get reinstated. This is new stealth account.

From when you called in to get it reinstated, every new seller account is getting suspended if you list your item immediately. Not sure if you wait, how it works. I prefer to call in and get it reinstated immediately.
