What to do when a listing will not publish

A failed eBay publish can be caused by missing details, eBay policies or a connection issue.

How to do it

  1. Read the exact error message on the affected item.
  2. Check required item specifics, condition, category, photos, price and shipping settings.
  3. Save any corrections before trying again.
  4. Check whether a listing already appeared in your eBay account before retrying to avoid duplicates.
  5. If the error continues, open Contact support and include the message and affected listing ID.

Helpful tips

  • Do not create a replacement listing until you have checked whether the original is already live.
