Glitch after glitch today

jellybirddesigns — Wed, 30 Mar 2016 03:22:31 GMT

Seriously, I am sick of the amount of glitches I have had to put up with the last few days.

Today I think I'm going to chuck something through a window.

Keep getting Server 500 errors and can't change some of my variation listings as it keeps showing a GTIN error (thought that issue was resolved the other day, but appears to be back).

So annyoyed right now - I have 30 new listings to add and I'm just going in circles.

Anybody else having a truly glitchy day today?

Sorry, rant over.

😞

Everything is just too slowfor words though.

I have been having problems reading messages for several days, with errors often coming up when I try to open new messages. Eventually they open or I can access from a link to the email but very annoying.

I am glad to hear it is not just my computer!!

Spent 8 hours updating UPC numbers and it was so slow..so instead of me completing this task quickly I now have an aching arm !!

Had to re enter on numerous listing so frustrating.

Has anybody heard anything from Ebay re these problems??

I have 13 free listings of my remainder 40 free listing allocation for the month.

Whenever I try to list any item at all, ebay are trying to charge me $1.50 insertion fee.

Was about to bulk submit relist: until I saw the total $29.00 for fees.

Ebay just aint worth a crumpet if the 40 free listings are no longer free.

Hoping this is an isolated glitch.

But I expect little from eaby these days... It saves me the continuous feeling of disappointment

Why does your skylanders listing have a photo of an express envelope

and someone's name and address clearly shown?

Makes no sense and it's a violation

I know it's a pain and wastes time, but I have had that happen to me on another ID also.

I got round it by re-listing less items at one time - like just 2 or 3, until I eventually got down to only 2 or 3 Free listings left which I was unable to use. It's happened to me twice now - worth a try perhaps

Good luck, hope it works for you

Doesn't everybody check their listings once they're up? Photos, spelling etc?

That envelope is just haunting me now

Re: Glitch after glitch today

mbselections00 — Thu, 31 Mar 2016 11:28:20 GMT

I've also been having problems with opening messages and yesterday could not attach photos to messages - ended up doing it via email.

And yes, photos loading tonight, but slower than a wet week !! I guess it's the end of the month and everyone's using the last of their free listings ??? But who would really know

Re: Glitch after glitch today

mbselections00 — Thu, 31 Mar 2016 11:39:44 GMT

Would it be worth sending a PM ? I would hate to be the addressee - having my details plastered on the forums and in listings ! I'm sure it's an accident, but a pretty bad one

TBH - mmm, yeah, not always - but have been making a big effort lately to check all listings as I relist. Specially now I've been given the option of Click & Collect and it is ticked on every single listing, although I do not offer free post. Not prepared to risk an eBay glitch and have a buyer tick Click & Collect & discover eBay has offered 'Free Post' on my behalf - seems like the sort of thing they'd do these days with all the glitches.

I do usually check the gallery photos though but have found that doesn't seem to stop eBay re-arranging the order on listings though and I do check most Variation listing photos.

I guess I'll pm them through the item

Looks like they might not come back here for a while..............

Done

Sounds like a good idea stawks - while I'm making admissions - when I first stumbled across the boards, since I'm not one for reading screeds of info and fine print, I fumbled away and it took me ages to re-find posts I was interested in following and even longer to find out how you received notifications , so I often wonder when I see what appear to be relative newbies posting if they know how to get back to the thread. Surely I'm not the only one who's sooo sloowww, lol

Re: Glitch after glitch today

imastawka — Thu, 31 Mar 2016 12:00:06 GMT

I didn't have any problems.

But I get that some would find it hard.

I find other forums hard to navigate sometimes

I messaged them through the item, but I gotta say, I don't have a good track

record asking questions on this id, lol

Have been abused for being a troll when I was only helping

Aaah, that's sad - some people just don't get it - it's a shame, they automatically get defensive and don't appreciate the fact you are trying to help - but I think it's partly a product of to-days world, it's just the way people seem to think these days, it seems to me the little niceties are becoming few and far between. Hard to explain, but I hope you get what I mean

An honest mistake

Thanks for the heads up, but a friendly tone goes a long way.

Peoples names and addresses are also listed in the phone book.

"Haunting you?" ..... seriously?

Get a grip on things that really matter.

If your haunted by that I hate to think what you think about our LNP federal government....

That matters.......

How many minutes did you spend obsessing over my mistake...

_______________________________________________________________________________

That is all that was required ! One member looking out for another and you react in this way - really.

It was assumed it was an honest mistake, but it could have cost you dearly had eBay seen it first, which is why you were messaged.

I don't think you've done yourself any favours here

Re: Glitch after glitch today

jfmgray — Thu, 31 Mar 2016 12:47:03 GMT

Now I have domestic buyers telling me that eBay will not let them pay for items they have purchased as I don't ship to their address. Ahhhh!! Anyone else experiencing this over the last few hours?
