I put a Nintendo DS system with some games up for auction on Ebay, and it got bids from the very awesome people here on this site. Later down the line I thought, "I wonder why no one else is bidding?" At first I figured oh well, I guess no one want it for a higher price, you know. Then I realized it's no where to be found on Ebay's listing!?!? I've seriously searched 100 times, and it's not on the listings. Is there something i can do about this, or am I screwed? Any help is MUCh appreciated.

Not sure what you mean?

I just went to eBay and searched for

"nintendo ds four"

Your listing was the 1st or 2nd returned.

It also comes up on a search for 'nintendo ds', it's just a bunch of listings down.

maybe you clicked on one of the filters by accident, like completed listings or specific ebay seller or something.

See I see it there, but when I search on my own it's not coming up. Is it because I'm the seller?

Sometimes it takes anywhere from 1 to 24 hours for your auction to appear on ebay's search function. I believe its mentioned in their terms and conditions when selling.

Video games and computers are especially bad because of the sheer number of auctions that are happening at the same time for the same item.

It took one full day for my auction for a desktop computer to appear in ebay's search. I emailed them about it, and they refunded my listing costs.

Hope this helps.

I like the cross that your items form. Very eye catching. Well not as eye catching as this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33039&item=7313078758&rd=1 , but still quite eye catching.

This is a typical issue on ebay. There are so many items that your item does not come up everytime.

I sold a PsTwo on Ebay and I found that my listing would come and go....

Ebay is flawed... I think someone needs to start some good competition...
