More BS from E-bay. They just changed their listing requirements to be so ridiculous now that for every listing of a spords card item, I have to enter the specific Player, Sport, Original or reprint, Manufacturer, Year, and team.  So Tell me How do I put in a player and team if I'm selling a complete set or multi-sport set?  I sell a lot of insert sets and series one or two sets on e-bay and now I have to go and manually change  150 listings.  E-Bay just TAKES AND TAKES.  So fed up with them.  

I listed several yesterday and did not have to do that.   I will list more today and see what happens.

I just tried again. Under Item Specifics. I have to add all that stuff. 

You are correct.   I just fired off a disgruntled seller letter to them.     I guess it's our own fault.  We constantly complain about reprints and counterfeits now they force you to tell them    Seriously, they have to change back to the old system.

 I simply wrote the words  "Multiple Teams"  and "Multiple Players" when they forced me to pick names.   Not that big of inconvenience for me.   

I wrote One Ball Johnson and Nacogdoches Nats. The annoying thing is I can relist all my items at once every week. Now I have to go through all of them and change this stupid stuff. 

Its getting me upset to but i guess its time to weed out the the fakes all i can is about time 

With all the changes that Ebay has made in the past 10 years to the sports cards area that it makes me believe that ebay has no Idea how the hobby works. It is like they have no one who knows the hobby and they are just winging it.

I think this is good. It will help stop the cons from posted fakes and passing them off as real. A plus for all people that buy cards from there. The trust factor on ebay, is way to low and they needed to do something.

  As for doing all the typing? I would copy and paste the info from a listing, like from here, or from your own documents you use to keep track. There is always a way to make it easier if you think about it.
