Hi Sammy.

Just checked now (time of this post) and there's nothing showing up for the keyword search you gave. Your eBay seller name just shows some Tums.

Thanks Andy . Yeah , it's a weird one . The TUMs have exactly the same shipping settings . I've been on the phone to eBay Spain this morning . They've documented the problem . However , as I've been "playing around" with the listings , they want to leave the current LED one that have now active , without touching it , for a few days to see if it appears on the other sites .

I'll update the post once I have more info .

Thx again to everyone for their help !

Weird .... I'm doing a basic search on Ebay.co.uk for "CB RADIO LED RED" and the item shows up about 6 or 7 down the list

Double check what is in the Tums add and then check your LEDs ads.

Evening Paul.

Funny thing is if I open a VPN to Spain and search for <CB Radio Channel display LED> I see your listings both RED and BLUE.

BUT

Go back to a UK based endpoint and no Sammy gear....

Cheers Dave . I've done that m8 . Went through it with the eBay support guy as well this morning . He said that the listings are fine . It takes a bit of time for the other countries to catch up . I think Claude said that they're showing up in France . Anyway . Ebay told me to leave them for a few days , so that's what I'll do . Might be a technical glitch somewhere in their system .

Hi Dougie . How's it going ? Yeah . I can see all my stuff here locally . It's really just the European sites . They don't seem to all synch up at the same time . As I said to Dave , I think they're showing up in France according to Claude . Anyway . I've created 4 lisings . 2 leds , and 2 lincoln plugs . I'll leave them for a while and see what happens . Cheers !

I'm doing fine Paul. Still look in on here on occasion, but still not rekindled the radio bug in any serious way.

To provide you with a little more detail.

Ebay.co.uk - can't see anything of yours when on a UK IP range.
Ebay.co.uk - can see yours when on a Spanish, France or Irish IP range.

Ebay.fr - can't see anything of yours when on a UK IP range.
Ebay.fr - can see yours when on a Spanish, France or Irish IP range.

So, that points to Ebay using country IP's to Geo Block irrespective of you selecting sell to the world, Europe, Continental Europe etc. Kinda makes a mockery of those choices they provide.
Essentially if we want to see your items we need to open a VPN to a European Country and then we can see you r items irrespective of the Ebay domain we log into.

As Stronty says , it looks IP related , as I can see all 5 items on Eby.co.uk from here in Spain without the VPN , but the TUMs have the exact same shipping defined , so that kinda throws the IP posibility in the bin . Might be a bug in my user configuration somewhere ? I'll call eBay again on Monday and see what they say .
