Re: Some advice needed please!

I've always used 'Sell Similar' when listing a new item, as all the main bits of my 'spiel' remain constant. I've only needed to change title, photos, body description, and postage dimension and weight.

Today I tried my usual thing, only to have a screen come up with 'Complete your Listing'. An hour of chat got me nowhere (grrr!), so I've come here (which I should have done in the first place!!)

So, can you please let me know if the 'Sell Similar' feature (which is still on the drop down menu) has been discontinued.

Replying to myself, as I can't work out how to delete my post. Help needed there also on how to delete!!

But I've discovered that 'Sell Similar' is no longer available.

And what a pain in the rear the new create listing tool is. If you happen to get something not quite right, it takes out info that you've already typed in.

It takes forever to do just one listing. As the English would say - **bleep**!!

Not here - I use it also.

Still there under Revise your item etc.

I know it's still there on the drop down menu, but when you click on it, you are taken to 'complete your listing' - the one that is already listed.

Try it, and let me know if it's still working for you. If so, I'll take it up with eBay again.

On a PC.

I've been relisting ended auctions.

I go to the item - hit sell similar - check I've got the listing correct - then relist.

If still for sale - and I want similar - I hit the item - then sell similar.

Not sure of the drop down menu you are referring to.

It's an issue when you're using 'Sell Similar' on an active listing. I first noticed it yesterday.

5kazam · ‎21-09-2022

At least it's not just me it's happening to.

domino-710 · ‎21-09-2022

What device are you both using.

No probs with the PC.

5kazam · ‎21-09-2022

I've been trying to list a new item, and go to 'sell similar' on an active item. As pnc76 has stated, that's when it becomes an issue.

I just tried it on an ended listing, and still the same problem.

When was the last time you tried to do a sell similar off an ended listing?

I'm using a pc. Wouldn't have a clue how to do any eBay stuff on a phone.
