Is the search facility knackered again?

    I have just been searching for a particular item in several stores all of which indicated multiples of that item. Yet only one item is showing (or none at all in one case) when I click on the quantity.

    For example I searched for Switzerland Pro Juventute stamps and found several stores that had quantities - in one case 96 items - yet only one showed in the search.

    Anyone else come across this?

    It happens with my own items from time to time. It can take a couple of hours for them to re-appear in the searches after auto-relist.

    But unlikely that all the sellers you looked at, all had their items ending on a Sunday evening.

    Thanks Mainly.

    Looking more closely at the items in question - they did indeed close on Sunday night (all of them!) and did reappear in searches today.

    I must bear these closures and re-listings in mind when doing a search for a particular item or group of items.

    It also raises, in my mind, and I hadn't considered this before, that I shouldn't end everything at the same time on the same day as then there would be a period, perhaps considerable, when nothing could be seen of my store material in a search.

    I have been ending all my listings on a Saturday evening - a hangover from when I listed a lot in auction format, combined with sheer laziness, but virtually everything now is on a But it Now basis, my thinking being that it didn't really matter because there was no 'end' as such, it either sold or went round for another week. I must change some of the ending days around and see if that makes any difference.

    Thanks, Mainly, for raising this and triggering my thoughts.

    That's an excellent way of doing it. I can see the Multiple Changes function is going to get a bit of a work over!

    I won't be listing anything this week & just changed all my sales back to auction to finish next Monday. I just need some time to catch up on other things. However, I too might have to use the bulk edit facility next Monday in order to spread things out again.

    It will in some countries.
