After years of selling on eBay, I have decided to finish up and don't intend to list any more items. As I do free postage, it's not worth the effort, if you purchase the items you sell and do free postage The market isn't there any more
I have no complaints, and have enjoyed the interaction with buyers, some who are in contact regularly whether buying or not.
Now for the ironic part .. since making this decision a couple of months ago, the following has been on my page EVERY DAY !!! (for over 2 months) How I would have loved this over the past years
Pay Only When You Sell This Month Pay no insertion fees on up to 100 listings per day. Auction and Fixed Price listings only Learn More - opens in a new window or tabAvailable at ebay.com.au | 22/01/18 00:00:00 AEDST | 23/01/18 00:00:00 AEDST | 0 | 100 | Active |

In the Seller dashboard, unsold listings constantly show items that have been relisted. This is a total waste of time. I want to find items that haven't been relisted. I have to scroll through 10 pages of relisted items to find ones that haven't been relisted. Ebay don't make things simple for you. You spend a lot of time on things that shouldn't take so long. I could list more but what's the point.

At the top of the page are options to refine the display.
Select 'not relisted' and your 'problem' is solved.
Or leave because you can't navigate the place. This is a 'I'm spitting the dummy and want everybody to know even though I don't usually post on the boards' thread, after all.

Ok but I don't understand why they don't make the default setting not relisted. The other issue I have is when printing address labels a lot of them are not set up correctly like for the suburb they put Adelaide instead of the suburb and you have to make changes in order to properly print the labels. This happens a lot, this should be something Ebay sorts out with each user before they purchase. It is a bit of extra work but happens a lot for me.

Perhaps the relisted item has hundreds of sales to happy customers who want to find that item again quickly, rather than having to scroll through pages of new fly by night, inexperienced sellers, with overpriced listings.
I buy a certain packaging item in bulk from a particular seller every few months. It drops off my purchase history, before I get around to buying it again, so cant track it that way. . The seller has over 10,000 listings and multi variations in size and quantity, so can take some finding there. I find it simplest to just type in the item and the succesfull sellers item comes up top of my search.
The fact that you want to see new listings, does not mean everyone else wants to see new listings, or that " not relisted" is even the most popular ebay search for everyone. That is why ebay has the search parameters in place, so that buyers can change them to suit their own personal needs.

Ummm, Chameleon, your purchase history goes back two years.
There's a drop down for that.
