here is the link to the post: http://www.ebay.com/itm/221024319617?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649#ht_500wt_1204

I posted this listing about 36 hours ago for a new Iphone 4 16GB but it still does not show up when I search for new iPhone 4's.

I have searched:

-Apple iPhone 4 - 16GB - Black (AT&T) Smartphone (MC318LL/A)

-Apple iPhone 4 - 16GB - Black (AT&T) Smartphone (MC608LL/A)

-Apple iPhone 4 16GB

-New Apple iPhone 4 16gb

and many other searches but never see my posting listed in the BUY IT NOW SECTIONS. AFter 36 hours there have only been 8 total views which is far less than any other item I have ever posted on eBay even though this iPhone is probably the most sought after item I have listed on eBay.

Are there any obvious reasons why my listing is not showing up in searches? Are they any tips I should try to help get it more views?

Thanks in advance for your help

I found it such searching for

MC318LL/A

You had too many search terms IMO, missing a space from the exact wording can cause it to not show up.

Also, I would set my eBay and Paypal so only those with US accounts can buy.

And state

shipping only to those locations with a US zip code....

And only mail using USPS PM, your standard if PP can take too long.

FirstClass parcel/package is limited to 13 ounces incase the weight is over that.
