I haven't listed on eBay all summer but finally got up the nerve. Of the several items that I wanted up last night, three returned with error messages:
1. Error 17: Item not found in eBay's database.
* Item with id "320355389563" is invalid or no longer present in eBay's database."---
I think two of these were relists. Should I just start over with those, going through the listing process?
Thanks for any help! Adele

If it is over 90 days old it may not be in their data base. But if you can see it when you click on it to relist that shouldn't be the problem. I am baffled too.

Hello Adele,
Select the item/s in question and click to relist them again. The next time around they will be submitted as brand new listings rather than relists and should post without this error message.

Hi, Christopher, and thanks. The suggestion you've made here is exactly what I did a few days ago when first working on them--and it didn't "take". However, I'll give it another try!

Hello,
If you get an item stuck in this state - click on the title of it in your pending section, then on the 'copy' link in the upper right corner of the page while editing it. This will automatically take you into the copied version which you can then scroll to the bottom of and click to schedule or launch now.
