I do not list on eBay directly. That means a lot of items that were created in Garage Sale disappear from GS only, even though they are often still live listings. They are only visible if I go into eBay, or if I perform a Import From eBay. (Here is a past similar issue: Ended & Deleted Listings from Garage Sale Remain in eBay for Sale - #23 by kristian)
I am saying the import from eBay seems not to work. When I Import listings from eBay, the items go into the “Lost and Found” Folder, which when I try to then delete those listings, they resurface as soon as I do another Import from eBay.
The other thing that is really strange to me is why anytime I select to view an item in GS that has ended, an “Archived Auction” is created.
I don’t really understand the purpose of Archived Auctions, and was once told to try deleting problematic ones. I didn’t receive an answer to my last question, which was:
“Can you explain what archived auctions are and how sometimes they glitch? I am glad I know how to fix this from now on, but am just curious. I have a lot of archived auctions in the “AuctionWebArchives” folder, will they also cause problems?” (Changes made not reflecting in GS live view, but updates on eBay - #5 by Gongs-Unlimited)
