New Ebay Error: “The item cannot be listed or modified.”
An associate of ours who sells on Ebay has brought yet another Ebay listing error message to our attention.
As a seller you may have seen this error when trying to upload your auctions using Ebay Turbo Lister software.
Apparently you’ll may get this errorif your title of description contains the word “ebook”. He didn’t notice this until he updated his TurboLister software…which he now thinks was a mistake as it took him 10 times as long as to list a few items as it has ever taken before.
He now views updating his TurboLister software not as an upgrade or improvement, but as a way for Ebay to impose their increasingly restrictive policies on sellers.
His view is that if Ebay continues to make it increasingly difficult for honest sellers to operate that Ebay will become increasing filled with fraud.
In his experience he has seen that Ebay continually cautions against doing business with anyone who contacts you about doing transactions outside of Ebay. He states that in reality the most trouble he has had dealing with dishonest people has actually been when doing business on Ebay. This places an incredibly different perspective on how safe many people may think Ebay is.
Ebay has been in continuous decline for some time now showing that clinging to rules that are truly not in the best interest of your customers will take it’s toll on your bottom line. Ebay stock has been recently trading at some of the lowest levels in it’s history. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
