Keywords in the title known to trip manual review...
 

So, several of my listings went fine. Then the fifth one, I changed ONE thing: I used the word 'pic'. Not only did it take 8 hours to show up in the search results (It previously took <30 minutes), it also had 3 different people view it before it went live looking at the view counter.

Are there any other keywords that trigger ebay's review before, presuming, it gets approved for listing (Or, probably more likely, doesn't get removed)?

So far on the list:

pic

I agree. I think a complete list of words to avoid would be beneficial.

Why "photo"?

Re: Keywords in the title known to trip manual review...
 

Potential of buyer deception - buyer can think he/she is getting something when it really is a photo...

No, the real reason is people sell 99 cent "Feedback photos". It's digital delivery, which is against eBay policy, for one, and two, it's feedback manipulation, which is the real reason "pic" and "photo" are manual reviews.

I typed in "feedback photo" just for kicks on eBay, and it asked me, did you mean ebooks?

"Ebook" is another manual review term. Nice catch.
