Auto-relist

[vintage-blue-888]

Hello

I have just had my auto relist function removed by Ebay (auto-relist up to 3 times for free). I do not have a store I just use the 40 free listings per month. When I asked Ebay about it they said it was removed because I have earned over $1000 (since Nov 2016) therefore I am an established seller and do not qualify for this function.

Has anyone else had this happen, Is there any way to get the function back?

Cheers

Many have come here asking the same.

Nothing unusual and you may get them back if your sales drop off.

I'd rather sales than free relists though.

But I suggest if you mostly get one bid anyway, just list as BIN's for 30 days.

That in effect gives you more free listings every month.

And sellers have found sales increase because many buyers don't want to wait until an auction finishes.

Lots of sellers sell over $1,000 a year and still get AR so I doubt the reps really know why it happens. The people you speak to wouldn't be the ones who do the programming, and they don't seem to be telling anyone why some people get it and others don't.

Sometimes they drop off temporarily when it's really busy because a lot of people have extra free listings, so perhaps try revising the listings in a few days and see if it comes back. Sometimes it works better if you click on the listing and then click on Revise, rather than clicking on Revise on the dropdown menu on your selling list.

That's true, I had forgotten.

As brer said they have been known to drop off and re-appear after a little time.

And revising often reinstated them.

The eBay reps are full of it. It's 100 sales AND $12,000 in the preceding 12 months that see the removal of the free relists. There have been a few recently that have been having the same issue. As mentioned, try revising the item in a few days. Try revising via the app (I find that works sometimes), clear out all your cookies and cache and restart your browser. Revise again to see if they've returned. Other than that, you just have to sit it out and wait. If you've sold the above amount, they will come back as soon as it drops below those figures.
