Ebay has duplicated some my listing and when I remove there was no actual duplication at all

[mackhay79]

So the issue is I relisted some items last night and my total number of listing grew from @ 1,000 to 1,500 with the 500 being duplicates. I did not list or relist the duplicates . When I remove some then the live auction also goes down.

Consequentially my listings are in a right mess.

I have been waiting on the chat ine for 5 hours when it tells me 1 minute.

Anyone help???

I’ve just looked at some of your listings, and they’re duplicated…..you need to go to Seller Hub and look up duplicates, and get rid of them

This also used to work:   eBay Duplicate Listing Scanner

Might help, perhaps.

I just let them run when it happened to me a few months ago.

Searches showed only 1 item and when they were relisted, every 6 months, the duplicates went into the ether.

......but you're not running auctions

If you have multiple 'same' items for sale at auction, eBay usually 'hide' the others and then list them when the first item is sold......but if you only have one, you're in the #$%^

Didn't know that. I gave auctions the flick when store BINs became visible. 2008?
