Почему ебей выдает ошибку

Tip 💡

We recommend you hit ‘CTRL+F’ (for Mac, Command-F ) on your keyboard to quickly locate the relevant error in order to save time. Once you located the error — Click on the text error and you will be redirected to the Workaround.

1. The title of description of the listing contains restricted keywords, phone numbers or email addresses.
2. The category selected does not match to the product. The workaround is to try another category.
3. Wrong policy selected. This is a common reason. To workaround it — try changing to other return or payment or shipping policy. 

⚠️ You’ve provided an invalid return policy. 

⚠️  In order to maintain a safe trading environment, sellers may only offer a maximum of 100 items per listing.

Reason: To ensure a safe buying and selling experience for the buyers on eBay, eBay might restrict the number of units offered per listing.
Workaround:  Reduce the available quantity for this listing and then try uploading it again. 

⚠️ The email address you entered isn’t linked to a PayPal account. If you don’t have a PayPal account, you’ll need to set one up with this email address so that buyers can pay you

Reason: eBay did not verify your PayPal account.
Workaround: Log in to your PayPal account,  click on the link on your confirmation email to verify your PayPal account with a credit card. Then go to your eBay account to set up PayPal as the automatic payment method for eBay payments. 

⚠️Before you can list this item we need some additional information to create a seller’s account.

⚠️ Listing cannot be revised because you have reached the maximum number of revisions allowed.

Reason: eBay has a limitation for how many times you can revise a single listing and you have exceeded this limit.  
Workaround: There’s nothing you can do — you will not be able to apply the change you wanted for this listing. 

⚠️ Validation of the authentication token in API request failed

⚠️ Buyers love large photos that clearly show the item, so please upload high-resolution photos that are at least 500 pixels on the longest side.

Reason: eBay requires all images to have a minimum of 500 pixels on the longest side. AutoDS will only upload 500-pixel images, so this error will most likely pop up when you add your own image to the listings that doesn’t match eBay’s requirements.

Workaround: Verify the pixel size of the main images of the listing and the images of your variations, edit to match if needed, then upload the images again.

⚠️ Listing titles are limited to [value] characters.
Reason: Your listing exceeds the maximum length of characters. This will only happen when you list directly on eBay as AutoDS will limit your title’s character to 80 as allowed by eBay.
Workaround: Ensure your listing title is not longer than the maximum length — 80 characters.

⚠️ Your listing cannot contain javascript («.cookie», «cookie(«, «replace(«, IFRAME, META, or includes), cookies or base herf

Reason: It seems you have used some improper codes in your listings. It can happen when you use your own HTML template.
Workaround: Make sure your item description does not contain the prohibited code listed in the error message.

⚠️ Variations Specifics and Item Specifics entered for a Multi-SKU item should be different

Reason: You have entered the same specifics for variation options and item specifics.
Workaround: You have the same values inserted for variation options specs and the item specifics. eBay does not allow this. Please remove the identical specifics in your Item Specifics section if they already existed as specifics in the variation option.

Reason: Please enter valid values that are consistent with the specifics of the variations.
Workaround: Make sure you are inserting valid values for all items and that these values are provided consistently for specifics across variations.

⚠️  A mixture of Self Hosted and EPS pictures are not allowed.
Reason: When there are multiple images for your listing and you upload them to the eBay Picture Services (EPS), eBay seems to get the image information corrupted — leaving some images uploaded to their servers and others not.
Workaround: Choose to use all EPS (eBay Picture Services) images for your item or all self-hosted images. Download all your images to your computer. Remove all your images for the listing, leaving only one image. Upload the listing with the one image remaining only. Once the listing has been successfully uploaded, add the remaining images you previously saved on your computer. 

⚠️ You entered more pictures than allowed.
Reason: eBay allows only 12 images to be uploaded to a single listing.
Workaround: Please remove images to have a max of 12.

⚠️ This category does not support products with variations.

⚠️ This item cannot be accessed because the listing has been deleted or you are not the seller.

Reason: This listing has probably been deleted on eBay.

Reason: Variation with a purchase history cannot be deleted.
Workaround: You’re probably trying to delete a variation from a multiple-variations listing with sales history.

Reason: If the listing is an auction, eBay will not allow changes to the listing if there is less than 12 hours left before bidding finishes. If the listing is a fixed price item, you might have a pending best offer from a customer which needs to be addressed before you can make changes to the listing.

Workaround:  Go to your eBay account and see if there is an open bid or offer on the listing. If there is, respond to it and change the product to be fixed price and good until canceled. Then try revising again. Make sure your eBay account is set to not accept offers on products and to have them good until cancelled.
