It's a Catch-22.
We just need to wait until they learn how to count to 10 and go fix the dropdowns.

The other day I was chatting with eBay trying to explain this simple scenario. He asked me 2 times for the item that had a problem so that he can look at it. I told him both times that eBay did not allow me to list the item because of the grade, so there was no item to look at. I gave him an item that was already listed and asked to try and revise it to a Grade 3. He finally saw the issue. After 1 hour and 15 minutes, he says to me that he needs to pass this issue onto his co worker who is familiar with this.
This next rep also asked me for the item that had a problem. I had to explain to him the scenario once again. After another 20 minutes of the same questions, I had enough. I told him that you have enough to work with, I need to go. He said that he would pass it on to the IT department but it might take awhile.
After 21 years of dealing with this crap, I am almost ready to say enough is enough.

Use a lower grade from the dropdown and put a clear explanation in the listing. Who would complain?

The problem with that is if the buyer searches for an SGC 3, my item will not be included in the search. I don't care too much about lower priced cards but I have a 58 Mantle SGC 3 that I am trying to list. I want to make sure that I get as many eyes on it as possible.
I shouldn't have to work around it. eBay needs to get it right. Hire people who know how to count.

Yes goes without saying just suggesting until they fix it you could work around it. I could be wrong but how many people are going to search for that card ONLY in an SGC 3?

That's exactly what I just did.

I was able to use customized item specifics to list it as an SGC 3, but still had to list it as a 2.5 in the "required" section of the form.
