Indexing problem(Item not showing in search)

Dear all,
I am faced with a strange problem. I listed 11 items this morning in INERNATIONAL LISTING 9 of them showed immediately in the search but 2 of them 330100492097 & 330100486225 does not show up in search even after 11 hrs(6.27pm 19/03/07) (Ebay says it can take 4-6 hrs). The items which i listed after these two came up in search but these 2 are still missing.
I talked to live support but it was of no help atall. The operator on the other end kept on repeating that indexing takes time . I do not understand that If the indexing was not done(in 11 hrs) then how my other items which were listed in same category after these two came out in search and hundreds of item after that have come up in search in the same category. As far As I know indexing for a category is sequential and not random as it was informed by this help desk operator.

The most important point is that in a international listing if we loose 12 hrs of 7 days listing.Its a big deal. Moreover my research shows that most of the items searched thru newly listed sorting end up as sale. WIth this delay of 12 hrs I loose being on first page of newly listed item .Even if it comes up now it will be in 4th-5th page of search , as lots of item listed after mine have been indexed and have come up in search.

I have faced this problem 2-3 times with my listings and still it continues. Is anyone else facing this problem ? What should I do that I do not land in this problem?
Senior seller?ebay official can you please help me

schedule your listings to avoid indexing delay.
