Bugger! I didn't have much time this weekend to make the most of free listing so cracked on with a few last night. The last 3 I used a random photo and added "details to follow" and was going to do these today as I needed to take photos. Just had a message to say these have been removed as this is not allowed. No "place holder" listings allowed. I put them on at just before midnight so blimey they have been very quick about it. How could they manage to see and remove the listings that fast? Plus I didn't know it wasn't allowed.

I have seen loads of these before on other people's listings. It seemed to imply that if it happened again they would be consequences so let that be a lesson to me!!

A bit peed off about it. Anyone knew this was not allowed? I don't do it often but have a couple of times when it's been free listing.

hmm it's not the photo because I had a listing still up with a photo of my dog wearing a batman mask that was for a top! I have just added the proper photos and sorted it out. I had written pics & further details to follow in main description but had a proper title for that one as it was from a "sell similar" template. The other 3 had a brief title and said "details to follow" in the listing title so this must be what flags it up as not complete. There you go - it's the first time I have done that so won't do it again.

They have changed it too so that you can't edit the title or pictures if you have a bid. I noticed a picture was upside down from loading on my mobile, had a bid placed before I got home, and can't change it the right way round.
