This is the long and the short of my problem.
# 1 I owe ebay and auctionwatch nothing my bill is paid in full
I have in the past week listed 2 groups of auctions,all legit items no trademark problems ect. Both times the auctions have been accepted and given ebay#'s they have remained on my page for several days.Some had bids, some were won with BIN. The last group went on on Sunday night. This morning they were closed. eBay says:
Invalid Item
The item you requested ( 861949634 ) is invalid or no longer in our database. Please check the number and try again. If this message persists, the item has expired and is no longer available.
What is going on? has anyone out there had this problem?
I just called ebay FOOL THAT I AM!!!! After 25 min on hold!! I got a man in Salt Lake City who told me he didn't have a clue, write to safe harbor! Well talk about waiting for HELL to freeze over I'm supposed to get an answer from them within 48 hours If it happens before the next Presidential election I'll be stunned! I don't want to hear any more complaints about paypal customer service... at least they have REAL LIVE human beings answering your questions for real.
If someone has knowledge in this area I'd be very grateful I really do try to make my meager little living selling on ebay!
Thanks Bonnie

Hi Bonnie
This happened to me several times yesterday and all my auctions that closed on the 18th showed as invalid but it is just an ebay glitch. Keep trying and the auctions will show again.

Kiara, Thanks for your post. It helps to know the ebay universe isn't directed at killing me personally! How did you manage to get you auctions back up and running. This is my second attempt at these auctions. I cut and pasted the old ones into a new auction format and they held for 2 days. If you would be so kind as to tell me I'd be very grateful. Bonnie

It only happened to me on my closed auctions, it said they were all invalid. But then they all came back again. Maybe yours got caught in the same glitch and got closed?
If they were shut down by ebay you would most likely have got a warning for an infraction. Sorry I can't help but I wish you luck with it.
