    Yes, it's a known issue. The problem can be found between the keyboard and the chair

    Or maybe just someone that doesn't understand the Bulk Listing option that will stay open until all the items are sold.

    Are you sure they are exactly the same? Sizes, colours etc? If they are then report them.

    started a topic Ebay multiple listings

    Ebay multiple listings

    I note that often there are multiple listings for exactly the same article from the same seller. Is this a ploy by the seller or a fault with the Ebay website?
