Post subject: Amazon Marketplace - Extremely slow to post listings???
Archived from groups: alt>marketing>online>ebay, others (more info?)

Hi,

The past two nights I have individually listed about 125 CDS & books
on Amazon Marketplace - they are still in the "Opening Soon", not the
"Open section, and they haven't shown up in Marketplace yet - I
haven't had to wait more than 24 hours for them to post before - has
anyone else had this problem? I haven't used the spreadsheet thingy
yet because I can look at the competing prices more easily when
listing them individually.

Thanks,

Sophie

Yes, books of ours that were uploaded more than 24 hours ago are still
sitting there in "Opening Soon". There was a message on the Announcement
Board about this issue, but it was dated September 11.

I listed a book 24 hours ago and it was posted. Could be that my smaller
listing caused quicker posting. Have never had any problems.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

I just sold a CD that is still in "Opening Soon" but does show up on
the item page. Most of the things I listed before last night are
showing up that way, so hopefully Amazon is resolving this problem.

My listings, posted one at a time, haven't shown up for 3 days now. I
would normally have had 10 to 15 sales in that interval - I've had none
since the 18th (when the last of my earlier listed items was sold).

I queried Amazon, and got back a vague message apologizing for any
inconvenience, that their engineers were looking into it, and that it
usually cleared itself up right away.

I've had problems with listings taking up to a day to show up on Amazon
before - it appears to be a common problem with their lame system. I
hope they don't think this is just the normal 'slow' situation, and that
they are actually aware of the problem and are truly working on it.
