Last week I did about 8 auto-relists from "Active" but none of them launched. This week I am doing 6. After I set them up, out of curiosity (and worry from last week), I checked my Pending and only 3 auctions are showing to be pending: 2 I launched from "Unsold" and 1 is from the "Closed" list & was (when it was originally launched weeks ago), an auto-relist, so it has a "recycle" icon next to it, so don't confuse it with one of the 6 I am auto-relisting today from "Active" auctions. NONE of the 6 I auto-relisted from "Active" are showing in "Pending". If they aren't supposed to show up in Pending, that's fine, but it seems to me they should. If they are, why aren't mine? And if they aren't supposed to, how would one ever make sure they WILL launch, especially in light of last week?

Nathan, How did I know you were going to ask me that? It was last week and I have lots of listings and many that are identical abd have no idea which ones I set up to be relisted at this point back then. I was hoping there was some sort of general failure in the auto-relist that others had experienced that I could learn about. I will make note tonight of the item #'s in Active that I have set up to see if it happens again.
Tell me if the auto-relists from Active that I set up today are supposed to be sitting in Pending?

OK, so far, 3 of the 5 I set for auto-list tonight have NOT relisted: 290203931814, 290203939158 & 290203940115. So 2 of the 5 did re-list, the 6th one closes tomorrow night. The 3 that did not re-list I am going to list right now from invenory, so please do not confuse them with being auto-relisted. Please get back to me about this problem. Also, I need to know if auto-relistings are supposed to show up in pending. Thanks

Hello,
All 3 of your examples sold, which means there is no re-list to take place. That is all the auto-relist function does, re-list unsold items back to eBay.
If you want to automatically list an item every X number of days, you would want to use the 'set recurring' option at the bottom of the listing page when submitting the items.
