Post sale.
Now everything is better.
It seems to come and go. I expect it to be back to being slow around 2pm CST.

I just launched a new auction to eBay - it shows up on my sales manager in Vendio, but does not show up on eBay. Someone always has an excuse as to why these things happen. Not really sure where the auction is - somewhere between here and there - hanging in outer space for a bit, I guess. I'm trying to be happy about this for some reason....can you tell?
eBay does sometimes have delays in adding your newly listed items to their search results and/or your sellers list.
Once it has gone live and has been assigned an item number, it shouldn't take much longer for them to include your items in those directories. (usually within a few minutes, but at their worst up to a few hours)

I can understand that, but why is it I never have that problem with other programs. I have several programs that I use and do not seem to have that problem - they seem to appear on my auctions right away. Unfortunately, this is the first. I have been on Vendio for quite a few years now and never experienced this in the past. Must be something new with you guys.
Nothing new with us. If you posted enough with other programs you would eventually run into the same thing from there as well.
It's one of the few things we have literally zero control over.
Once eBay has launched your item to their site and you can view it and your item number, the sites you used to list your items do not follow up and then update your eBay sellers list or the eBay search fields.

Sorry, Christopher, but I haven't run into that program. I have been with one of your competitors for quite some time and hever have that problem. They don't have quite as many perks as you have in some areas, but I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth it all when it takes over 2 hours to get an auction listed. That's a new one for me.
I have the advantage of pretty much only talking to people when there are problems, so my view may be a little skewed, but its a pretty common happening.
Im sure if you were to continue listing from the other program, eventually you would run into the same.
Again, its nothing we or they have any control over, as once eBay posts the item and assigns it an item number - it's up to eBay to add it to their search and sellers other items pages.
Try searching the eBay boards if you don't believe me. I wouldn't waste your time saying so if I hadn't heard it time and time again.
