    Default Re-listing unsold items

    Is there a way EBID could mark an unsold item as Re-listed after a seller re-lists it? As far as I can tell it stays in the unsold folder without any flag saying it's already been re-listed. Thank you.

    Once I relist my items (I go the manual route because this option will bring up the edit page for me), I then delete the items in my unsold folder - I do that one by one as I don't have many to relist at a time, but there is a relist/delete option if you have tons to relist without editing all the time - this option will relist all your items and delete them from the unsold folder automatically.

    I use the same method as Jeweleffects and Maelbrigda. Simple and effective.

    Just click on both 'Relist' [make sure you always do this one first] and 'Delete' blue tabs at top right of your Unsolds page. Then scroll down to the Repost/Delete button.

    HTH.

    I have over 6,000 listings - none on run 'till sold - all on 8,9,or 10 day auto relists.
    I click on the 'Listings I ran - without sales' (far left on your My eBid page) and relist mine manually each day, (or when I can!) and use the 'relist' and 'delete' facility.
    It is very important that you check that your relist and delete totals are identical - otherwise you could accidentally delete something without relisting it, and it will disappear from your listings.
    If you relist something from the 'items I ran - no sales' and don't delete it, then you will see that you have already relisted it - thus avoiding duplicates .... see screenshot.

    hi there, i find the relist function a nightmare, this way of doing relists is absolutely absurd. i have near 4000 items to relist from the 'listings i ran' page and it will only let you relist a page at a time, why isnt there a function to relist ALL pages of listings at one easy press of a button, why do you programmers not see this,AND THE SAME MUST BE SAID FOR THE 'DELETE ALL' function also.
    it takes a long time to wade through each individual page, tiresome. im fed up, and not even quarterway through.
    and on this note, one haseto scroll from top to bottom constantly to press relist/delete, cant it be at the top of page with the other buttons? and i thought programmers were supost to think logic, pity i cant just pick up all my listings and auto relist with ebay, even with all their fees. the reason i dont at this stage is it is a nightmare to try to put all the items into their platform from this platform, two totally different listers/spreadsheets etc.

    The manual one to one relist works the best for me as I don't have 1000's of listings to worry about. Also, I'm not an eBid programmer, I'm just a normal member like you.

    I should be so lucky, to have that many items to relist!

    Still, although I don't have personal experience of the scenario you describe, I can see it must be frustrating. Though any such change would need to be made with extreme care, offering an option for the current page vs the whole lot, or else there'd be a lot of VERY unhappy users surprised by their listings vanishing.

    Maybe I'm an unusual programmer, but I tend to implement features a little sooner when I'm asked nicely, rather than "why do you programmers not see this" and "i thought programmers were supost to think logic". But maybe that's just me. I'm not an ebid programmer.
