Ebay has specific categories under its radar (PS3 , Wii ....) , it always takes hours to be appeared to the buyers.
yesterday, i posted a gift card ($ 400 value) 5 min it was there.
before, i posted consoles (PS3 wii) , many hours they took to be visible.
I think it depends of the Categories.

thx

you gained their trust i guess.;)

Or someone was asleep at the wheel. It happens. Don't look at the horse too closely ;)

I am telling you....
 

but know one wants to listen... go figure:confused:

Ebays computer system uses probably a "scoring card" for each account.

New Account - O trust points (watched):eek:
Added a credit card to account - + 1 trust point
Buy something that is delivered (not digitally) - + 1 trust point
Get a positive for that delivered item - + 1 trust point ;)
accept paypal - + 1 trust point :o
Get 5 positives - + 1 trust point
account more than 30 days - + 1 trust point :)
sell an item and get a positive - +1 trust point :D
at this point you are good as silver... you still got to work up to the gold

Now you may say what does having a PP account have to do with it, well silly it is there way of double verifying you as you have to go thru the PP setup as well.

Also, Just to make this clear ebay does know if you have an account with PP or not... how do you know feebay????
First: My ebay is "not linked" to my paypal account but I take PP payments for auctions. MY PP that I use for this ebay account is a "personal" account (not my info the setting)
I went to list an item and wanted immediate payment via paypal. I went to "save and continue" to get the auction rolling and the page came back with... In order to require immediate payment you have to have a premier or business account. Hmmmm... So somehow they reach out to PP to see what account type you have.....

Okay Mrs. Jones, that link you posted doesn't have nothing to do with what was discussed nor asked here.......


update: Glad you deleted the post mrs. jones

What's your problem Mr Hanson? why do you reply with a derogatory remark to every message I post?

Oh now I see after reading your other messages, It's not just me being picked upon............you do it with all your replies.

You think he's tough here? Just don't show up at a house he is at with condoms and a 6-pack of mike's hard lemonade:D

LOL. just don't get Modee started.

modee,

could it have anything to do with the day and time you listed the item? many people do their listings on sunday evenings, sometimes there is a drag at that time.

I recently listed a Veroed item and usually these item do take at least 24hrs before its is search able but within 10-15 min I received a question.
Item was listed on a Wednesday.

Hi I was wondering the same thing, I sell clothing lots and I notice I don't see my listing until a couple of days later, so what gives? I opened a new account

My experience has been-depends on the type of item, just listed 40 items on a 1 week old acct- listings seem to appear within hours, when you list an item on their HOTLIST, it takes sometimes overnight... When I was a PS, listings were immediate, theyve changed alot, they're screening more... they will eventually show up... Its happening to all of us.. Merry Christmas!

Yeah HOTLIST items are always delayed for new and low feedback users untill there monkey speicalst review it and then approve it to be listed on ebay. If they dont approve it you will be banned with one of there generic abuseing ebay excuses.

Mine are taking about 4 hours. It is a new account - less than a month old with 2 feedbacks. Nothing on the hot list and all legit.

It does seem that my items under $25 are listing almost instantly. The longest are only 3-4 hours. It is a lot faster then the olden days. I think that is because after a certain (60) number of days as a member or certain feedback (10), the don't look at you at all, unless they receive a complaint.

Sometimes they do
