I have been editing some auctions and I've noticed that ebay's editing feature really is a hassle. Once you've made the changes in the HTML (in my case) I have to wait what I've calculated to be 2 minutes before the system would allow you to view your changes.
I have a cable connection and I have made some changes to my RCV Window in my registry. I don't know if this is the cause but or if Ebay servers just can't handle the load. Does anyone else have this problem?
Would love to have some technical advice.
Note: If I attempt a preview of my editing too early I have to go back to the 2 minute wait again...... isn't that something!

I put my auctions on myself ie no bulk loader and I am having a terrible time loading them. I list several of the same type and like to go back to the same "template" ie the same auction I have previously listed and each time it is blank! Have to start over again and if I make a tiny error and want to correct ~ I go "back" and lol it is blank and I have to redo everything! and it is taking forever to just go to the next page to review and submit. I am hoping ebay fixes the glitches or maybe they just want you to sign up for with them to load auctions, pics etc. Their relisting feature stinks~ most of the time I can't be bothered to relist! takes forever and is a pain . If bidville can find an easy way to relist ~ why not ebay Opps I forgot they might have to reinburse you if item sells! LOL or I would be crying the blues! Oh guess I am crying the blues.
I suggest waiting 2 minutes exactly before hitting the view button while in the resubmitting mode or in the relist. I don't know why but this seems to work.
Once you've hit the view, you can hit the submit right away. Sometimes though even this page messes up. Just go back using your browser back button and hit submit again.
I sure do wish Ebay would fix this error. It is time consuming and besides the service is not free. If it were then I couldn't be choosy but it's not.....
