Well I list certain things on certain days & certain times & know what sells best at that time. Now what I did have ready is going to list at the wrong time.
I'm having the problem also. I think it's Auctiva. Look at the Scheduled items and I noticed that it made the posting date 7/24/08 for some unknown reason instead of immediate. I love Auctiva but they really do screw up royally some times....glad I'm not paying!
dvchic - that's really lousy. Same with me in terms of what end times/days work best for my auctions. I wish there was a way Auctiva could list them now/soon---a couple hours past when they should have listed---and somehow adjust the meter so they would end at the time we intended. But I don't think that's possible.
Warman - that's weird that yours have the wrong date, but even those with the correct date are not listing. Mine all say 5/25.

I can't even get in to adjust the items or rescedule. It just ridiculous! 1 item out 15 listed.
Yep, it is weird. I hit post at the end. Half of my listings made it through then the other half are stuck. It wont even let me edit the post times now. I hope they get a real server someday...
Me neither but just now I did check them all off and "cancel posts" and they did indeed come off the queue. It would be bad for them to end this late next Sunday. I guess the only thing to do is accept this as a loss, look at the next best listing time, and hope for some assurance from Auctiva that this kind of "delay" (as opposed to 5-10 minutes) is a freak incident and that we can safely list on Sundays even if there's a short backlog.
Now the dates all magically changed to todays date but all the times are messed up--lol
My listings are still not posting!! Are there others still having this same problem?
What is going on with auctiva? I schedule my listings to go at 10pm eastern standard time and they are still not posted. I even pushed the post now button and all is showing is the ready status. I went ahead and wrote in a complaint. Hopefully the apply!
Yep. I had to rescedule them all. Waste of my time tonite!
I am so pissed off. Spent the whole day taking photos and I can't list anything. All my listings are sitting in the scheduled folder for over 3 hours now. Sent an email to support and got back a nonsense reply about my eBay tokens!
Hello Auctiva!!! Anybody awake??
Hello Auctiva!!! Anybody awake??
You might all try Terapeak if you want to know what time and day of the week the most successful auctions end. I find my auctions have done much better since using this service. Who knew that 12 noon on Wednesday might be the very best time to sell a particular item.
Having said that, I am also extremely frustrated with Auctiva tonight. My auctions are in limbo somewhere out there and I am not sure what to do. I unscheduled them and posted to start at once to try to get into the best time for them to end, however, they are not showing up at eBay so I don't know where they are! Believe me, I am feeling everyone's pain.

I guess I will be doing the same relisting all of them for another time. How disappointing? I agree a waste of about 2 hours tonite!
Dvchic,
When you reschedule did that work because I tried that three times and it didn't work for me.This is so frustrating!

Yes, I am having this listing problem too. I wanted to get these auctions posted before 10 pm central so they wouldn't end too late, so I started posting them at 8 central. Two made it through quickly but the last two didn't. I have tried to cancel & repost but that probably made things worse - I am now farther down the que. Oh well, eBay sales have really stunk lately anyway.
Now they have alert. It says
"Auctiva is experiencing some delays and problems posting users' listings to eBay. Our engineers are currently working to resolve this issue. Thank you for your patience. "

They better work it out in 10 minutes before 12pm Eastern Standard time
At least they didn't all leave town for the long weekend! 

I just tried some listings with immediate post and they are all sitting in the ready state even though they all said posting to Ebay. And yes, Auctiva is like molasses tonight.
