I’m new to bonanza and created 1 item. It looks fine in my booth, but I can’t find it when I search, and I’m not confident that the world can see it. How can I be sure? Thanks.

Hello @proj2501,
Thanks for your email and welcome to Bonanza! After an item is listed on Bonanza and you have clicked “Activate Booth” or “Update Booth”, it can take up to 30 minutes for the item to be properly indexed into our databases before it can be found using the site-wide Bonanza search feature. However, the item can still be found by users who use the search option within your booth or by browsing your booth.
On rare occasions, the item can miss one of our indexing cycles and it can take 12 hours before it’s available for searching. If the item doesn’t show up within 24 hours, please let us know at support@bonanza.com and we’ll take a closer look.
If you don’t have any feedback or if you are selling an item that hits our criteria (Electronics, expensive handbags, etc) then we will have to manually approve your booth before it can be activated. Normally we do a site wide approval a couple of times each day.
Let us know at support@bonanza.com if you have additional questions. Thank you for your patience as we maintain a safe community for buyers and sellers, and welcome to Bonanza!
Kind regards,
The Bonanza Team

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
