Unable to save listing drafts

[TimeValley]

First time encountering this issue in over 12 years on Etsy. I was working on creating drafts from adjusting a listing of a sold item. All went fine as usual, clicked "save", the number of listings in the "draft" section increased by one. However, when I returned to the section later, the listing was gone. Tried to go through the process a few more times with the same result. Searched Etsy forums for advice, based on which I cleared my history, shut down the browser and restarted the computer. Still experiencing the same issues on all browsers (Chrome, Firefox and Safari).

Is anyone else experiencing this problem? If so, have you been able to resolve it in some miraculous way? Any advice will be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

@TimeValley: Have you checked the inactive section of your listings manager page in case you ran afoul of some Etsy bot?

Thank you very much for your reply, BagmakerSupply.

After about an hour all my repeated draft tries appeared in the drafts section. Weird... It must have been an Etsy glitch as all other sites I used in that time period functioned perfectly fine. 

Thanks again!

I also experienced the heart stopping feeling of having a draft not appear after working on it for a long time. Thankfully it showed up later.

I just had that happen, too.

no way to save as a draft...so I cancelled the work. Fortunately, I was revising an existing...and I needed photos anyway, but it still frustrating.

Yes, the exact same thing happened to me yesterday. I cleared my cache and cookies, signed in and out of my account, rebooted my laptop - all to no avail. Then, after about an hour the draft listing reappeared. There's no rhyme or reason to it. Just another Etsy glitch rolling through different shops at different times. Sounds like yours resolved itself as mine did.
