strange api errors yesterday

Hi itsjustme,

Thanks for making us aware of the posting errors you encountered. Although I am not sure what may have caused the Start Prices you had specified when relisting to be dropped during the relist process, I have found that the Bulk Relist tool available from the Closed Listings page will allow a relist attempt to be made when that require field is left blank.

I have passed the details of this issue over to our technical team to make them aware of this behavior and will make sure to convey that the Start Price field was filled in when you attempted to relist the items for which this error was returned.

We apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused.

I had another one yesterday. Here is the error message:
API Error

Please enter a valid starting price for your item (eg. US $0.99).

Obviously if I had failed to put a valid starting price, Auctiva won't allow the items to schedule and a fix is required immediately. So the fault is somewhere after it is successfully scheduled

Twice in the last two days I have had events that shows "failed to list, failed to post in time." The item also shows up in scheduled listings with a "not relisted" and "error message".

Having had this issue before, I made sure to check active listings prior to rescheduling the listings. Sure enough both items had relisted (one item from yesterday evening and another item the day before).

I am cautioning others to make sure to check events and failures to see if the item relisted or was listed despite the notice. That will protect users from getting a duplicate warning notice from ebay.

What are API errors? I posted an ad for a mixture of trains, track, train boxes; and it appeared to post OK till the next day when I received a notice that said, " API Warning -
No product found for ProductListingDetails.<BrandMPN> <Mixture of Brands>. " What is that? And how to I fix it?

Thanks from an oldie but NOOBIE!

api errors are reasons why your item supposedly did not make it from auctiva to ebay.

ironically many of them do despite the message from auctiva that they failed to post.

check ebay to see if your item actually listed.

i had three or four more notices yesterday. Of those two definitely listed.

something seriously wrong with the notices and possibly communication between auctiva and ebay systems.
