OK,<br />I listed my first items for sale on e-bay. I selected for the auction to begin right away. There is a balance on my PayPal account. However, when I search and bring up my name, it doesn't show the auctions. It says I have 0 items for sale. In "MyEbay" I see the auctions listed, however they are listed as "Currently not selling"<br /><br />?????<br />Help, what did I do wrong!!<br /><br />AK Chappy

Never mind.<br />I guess e-bay must have to approve the item or something.<br />Took it about 2.5 hours to show up, but they finally did.<br /><br />AK Chappy

Yep...sometimes it takes a while for it to show up in searches.

Re: Ebay Help

When you list auction they take time to show up even when looking up your name . However....if you go to "MY EBAY" and click item for sale or item pending you will find it qas soon as it is listed.

Delay can be up to 6 or 8 hours.<br />If you search with the actual auction item number, you can see it right away.

Re: Ebay Help

Depends on what you are selling and what your selling history is for how long it takes for a listing to go up. When I first started selling, it would take almost a day for a listing to be found with the search... now, it's instant. Just took time to build up the account.
