I haven't listed any auctions since May. Looks like a whole lot of changes have occured, and I am trying to update my templates, etc.
I have a few auctions in pending that I use as my complete templates. I have updated all info and have even added in the item specific information (all just from the drop down lists). I clicked to see the eBay Preview, and received the following error message: (I was not trying to relist, this is a new auction)
A processing error occured while previewing your listing on eBay.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The venue ebay has possibly returned the following message:
Error 5028: Invalid Value. (23010)
Value given for "Pattern" is invalid.
Note: this error may be related to the Item Specifics content you entered. Please review content in 'other' fields in the Item Specifics section for validity and number of characters (in some cases you should limit text to 15 characters.)
If this message indicates you must "put a credit card on file", please click here to verify your ebay account is up to date.
If this message indicates "failed in payment methods", please click here and select at least one payment type
If this appears to be a problem related to ebay, please check here
I didn't have any "other" items written in as they were all on the drop down lists that showed up automatically.
Any help would be appreciated as I am going to start listing again.

Hello irisbloomers,
Thank you for posting. eBay is working on some issues with item specifics and the API, and the 'Tea Rose' pattern that you have selected does appear to be affected. If you remove the pattern from item specifics, you should be able to launch your auction.
We are going to continue to work on this, and we appreciate your patience.
Looks like the specifics (at least in the sample I mentioned) is now working. Just went in and checked the pending template and the eBay preview is working with no error message.
