eBay Moves "Sell One Like This", Causes Seller Confusion In Latest App Update

eBay sellers have been left looking for the "Sell One Like This" button as another app update causes confusion and frustration.

Multiple posts popped up in the eBay community forum today about the problem as sellers noticed the option to create a draft based on an existing live listing was no longer showing when scrolling down the item page as usual.

Using my phone - What happened to SELL SIMILAR ITEM - it has disappeared, I use it daily, and GONE

Went to go list items as i normally do, and when i find a similar item online, the option on your phone when you scroll through the item to sell similar, the tab that usually is there to sell similar item is not there anymore, and no option on the phone to sell similar item..

Its easily found on my desktop, but is anyone able to figure this out, as i usually list from my phone, and this is going to be a huge headache if i cant find a way to sell similar on my phone. Please, can someone figure this out and help me find a way.

I can no longer find the sell one like this button on other peoples auctions

I can no longer find the sell one like this button on the ebay app when searching other peoples auctions did ebay take this button away?

Sell Similar Item

I list baseball cards through my eBay phone app. I notice that since last night the "Sell Similar Item" is gone. Does anyone know if that is a permanent change or an error. This will greatly affect my ability to list cards if it is permanent. Thanks.

Sellers have also taken to Reddit to discuss the issue:

However, the Sell One Like This option has not been removed from the app - there was just a forced update which has moved it to behind the little three dots in the upper right corner.

I actually think this is a good update as having it on the item page may have been confusing or at least not relevant to buyers - and many sellers likely would have had a much more positive response to the change if they had simply been provided a heads up announcement or a pop up in the app notifying them it had been moved.

Unfortunately, it seems eBay didn't learn important communication lessons from the forced update debacle in the UK which stopped support for older iOS and Android versions with no warning.

eBay users scramble after updates leave both iOS & Android apps non-functional on older devices that don’t support Android 10 or iOS 17 or above.
