I paid the 19.95 to get my item featured in its category. It shows up at the top when I pick gallery view. However when I look in this section and do not have gallery view enabled it shows another item as featured and mine shows up way down the list as not featured. I thought the 19.95 gets my auction at the top of the list. How do I get my item at top when it is not gallery view????

Item is http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3600386813&category=4619

Item # 3600386813

I searched this auction in every direction!
Could not get it to come up as featured.
In gallery or cat.
I may be wrong, possible!
You should go in to revise it, there you may find you never featured it!
And if you didn't, you can there!

Never mind - I listed it as Gallery Featured instead of featured plus - my bad - I cant revise it down from gallery featured - I wonder if I email ebay - they will let me change this.

I think you better go in and revise!
What you are showing is featured in Gallery!

usually that works - but there is no option to remove the gallery featured option.

I went in and looked at mine to see what you can do.
You can change your gallery feature to gallery, cost .25
Then go down and click on featured plus.
The change will cost you .25 extra.
But at least you will have your feature the way you want it!

No this is not an option - there is no way to change this from a gallery featured to just a gallery item.

ok the guy on ebay live told me there is no way to do this. So I ended the auction and requested a refund from ebay.
