Launched 2 auctions through Vendio. Got the message that my auction was due to be launched shortly. However, my auctions never showed up! When I log into Yahoo and go to my auctions there's no sign of them!
What happened?

On your Yahoo Auction page are you clicking on items that you are selling? Try that

Yes I am. It tells me I am not selling anything!

Check your Vendio Yahoo Active & Pending listings to make certain that it did list. That may be the problem. You could also try to list directly from the Yahoo website. That is what I do with no problem. You have to make certain that you know your Yahoo Security Key password for the auction to launch.

This time I launched an auction directly through Yahoo. Even got my pics to show up! Clicked on 'launch now' and sat back. 15 hours later and I'm still waiting for it to show! When I go into my auctions it says I'm not listing anything. What's wrong?

Are you into bashing all of the time or just now?

Yahoo doesn't and never has had a launch now button. Pretty clear that you are not on the Yahoo site just from your postings.

Stonecold613 a reply is not expected or appreciated. To anyone else who might be able to help me - when launching an auction on the YAHOO page I can see the auction in front of me, I'm able to edit it if I want to and then when I'm happy with it I press 'SUBMIT AUCTION'. That's where the fun starts as it disappears into the Bermuda Triangle. When I go into 'my auctions' and look for it there's nothing there! I have contacted Yahoo about it but was curious to see if anyone else had had similar problems. Apologies for trying your patience but we're not all seasoned auctioneers, especially not Yahoo ones!

I had problems too but the Security Key is the answer - cal Yahoo at 408-349-7770 and they will walk you thru it

Thanks Neil but I'm in Ireland! Hopefully I'll get an e-mail from them soon.

Ok, here's the reply from Yahoo:

"Unfortunately, at this time you will not be able to participate in
Yahoo! Auctions U.S. as a seller or bidder unless you have a U.S.-based
credit card and have registered your account within the United States.
However, you may choose to post your auctions on one of the Yahoo!
international sites."

Ah hello, get real. What makes Yahoo so different from Ebay and why when I registered with them with my credit card information did they not tell me then?
Ridiculous.

Maybe your credit card expired since your registered.

Duh,
Why didn't you tell that to us right away. Ireland is not in the list of countries that Yahoo allows auctions for. Your listings will never show up. You will have to stick with ebay.
