eBay Error 17460: Unknown Error (usually an item specific value in the wrong format).

Why this happens

Despite the name, eBay usually returns this when an item specific value does not match the format eBay expects, for example a range field such as Device Charging Range that must be written as min-max with limited decimals. Why eBay enforces this: eBay returns 'Unknown Error' when a value fails a validation rule that has no dedicated code. For item specifics with a strict format, such as ranges or measurements, this is the usual cause. When it usually happens: It appears most often in electronics and appliance categories with numeric range specifics, after importing values written as text.
