eBay Error 21916664: Variation Specifics provided does not match with the variation specifics of the variations on the item.

Why this happens

1) You are editing or relisting a sing-item listing to include variations, or — 2) The software you are using to edit does not have all the current variation data for the listing. Why eBay enforces this: A live variation listing has a fixed set of attribute names. eBay refuses updates that send different attributes, because the existing variations and sales would no longer match. When it usually happens: It usually appears when attributes were renamed in 3Dsellers, for example Colour to Color, or when variations are added to a single listing.
