I've got my panda bear listed on Ebay, I listed him on ebay.co.uk in artist one of a kind and he then showed up also on Ebay.com in the same section.  I listed him 7 days ago and he is due to finish in about 3 hours!!!  I just tried to check for him on .com and he is not amongst the bears there but he is showing on co.uk...

I was hoping he would get noticed at the last hours but not sure enough people will be seeing him now     I thought there was a live support where I could ask people live on ebay about a problem but I can't find it - does anyone know how I can access that???

THANKS

Hi Catherine,

I couldn't find your little one on Ebay.com either.  When I went to Ebay.com's Home page there is a Live Help link near the top right hand side.  Hope they can help...I've used it several times but it's a hit or miss with who you get...some are very helpful...others are not.

Good Luck!!!

I'm talking live to a ebay person at the moment, so I hope they can help

well, I got a semi helpful person.  I don't get it though.  When I listed my panda last week on co.uk in artist one of a kind section it did appear also on .com.  But I just went to check now and he's not showing up   I wish I had checked earlier on in his auction, I just hope he gets spotted, I expect not now

Catherine,
     I'm not sure what Ebay told you, but it's always been my understanding that if you list in a specific country like Belgium, or Canada for me, and ship to other countries like the U.S., then to find the item in those countries, you have to search by "available to" the U.S..  When I did an advanced search for your bear on Ebay.com, using "available to" the U.S., it shows up, but you have to know to search that way and I'm sure not that  many people do.  What surprises me is that it showed up for you in the U.S. regular listins at all.   I am sure you have to actually list in that country for it to show up in the regular listings.   I hope I'm not confusing you.

                                   hugs,

IT's ok Brenda, I was confused before anyway    Seems like I have made a mistake not listing on .com, strange as I had previously seen my bear listed in the regular listing section.  I don't know if anyone can shed any light on this.  Next time I'll just list on .com I guess.  STRANGE thing is I just went to .com and now my bear is showing in the general listing!!  Oh confusion  Can't wait for Bid4Bears campaign!

Hugs

Catherine, did you use the new listing format? I just can't get my listing to work in to categories, because the stupid thing won't let me change to posts to WORLDWIDE
So, I just use the old listing format on eBay.com

Hope this helps, goodluck
