Too much moo-shu pork last night? 
HOW did you launch them? Vendio or some other service or straight thru eBay?
And just to be sure, you DID use the regular ebay.com and not the Chinese site?

Are you sure they're not in Japanese? If they are, leave 'em alone. The way bidding is lately, you'll probably make twice as much dealing with the japanese as you would the Americans.

Well - you appear to be searching for it on the Ebay China site... see that cn after the ebay.com? Thats China. That the cn out and you can easily view your auction in english on the US site.

If it's really "common" sense, why do so few people actually have it?

I don't know, I just logged onto my email, saw that someone had retracted a bid and clicked on the item # it then showed up in that foreign tongue!

I think sthoemke's just messing with you the .de at the end of the url is Germany.
I just did an eBay search by auction #, and it looks absolutely fine to me - and the url I got on the page is the one I posted above...

But that's OK. I needed a distraction I have a 2.5 yr old that is finding her "trickntreat" candy everywhere I hide it. She's also running around singing "Happy Birthday" to a plastic witch while claiming to be a jaguar. I think it's time for a nap...

I like the china one better. Look how neat the auction page looks. I am amased as how they can write/print those letters.
This was a great distraction.  Thanks for the laugh. Now not laughing at you but with you.

Lolley - seriously - Amber has a thread about this too. She also had a bid retraction with a link to Chinese site. The problem must be with the link. Did you have to sign in to see the retraction and was there really one? I hope it isn't some new kind of spoof...or maybe the ebay bid retraction dept has been outsourced! You might want to send to Spoof ebay just to make sure and change your password.

I've had questions from ebay members before and when I click on the link it takes me to the site they referred the questioned from. If it's an international buyer, it takes you to their country's site sometimes. It's fun and confused me, too. Is that not the way it usually works?

This buyer (that did the retraction) had contacted me before about buying this item. A couple of days later I sent her the re-listed link. She immediately bid, then several days later retracted saying : bid the wrong amount". I did send it to spoof just in case

If the auction states shipping to the US and Canada ... how does it end up being translated into Chinese, German, and French????
