Anyone else having this problem? When you do a search by seller (showing all) the list comes up with auctions that are not my auctions. Three auctions show up on my list that are not my auctions. They are all for women's clothing, which is not what I sell. I have emailed eBay but have not heard anything back from them.

When you click on the auction that is not yours, a legitimate auction comes up with a different seller. I don't suppose it is a gigantic problem but it is kind of spooky to have someone else's auctions show up when anyone tries to look at my other auctions. Would be even worse if they were selling similar items to what I am selling.

Is it just me or are the eBay gremlins showing up on other sellers lists?

Really interesting search results I got a minute ago also.....did a search for my listings and got one that ended yesterday plus about 50 more that said "Fake Item"...the item number areas all had zeroes the bid prices were all 0.00 and all end at 16:19:07 today!! I thought I had lost touch so I printed it and looked at it again just now and yep' that's what it said. Pulled another list just now and everything there is correct!!!! Must be gremlins somewhere!!

Are you sure it is not a pod version of you?
How completely unnerving.

I've got one of those fake items showing up on ebud. Really freaked me out until I contacted ebud support!

Must be a glitch with ebay.

I listed about 7 items today, mostly women's shoes. Came home, pulled up my seller list, hit refresh, and all but one changed to the Fake Item listing.

I can pull my item up correctly from My eBay page though.

Whew, I thought VERO was at work.

I got the "Fake Item" thing a little while ago too! I just about jumped out of my skin -- my first thought was: They must have cancelled my auctions!!! Why?!? I didn't do anything wrong!!! I quickly hit reload, and my items came back. Whew!

That was skeery.

I got the fake item thing too, tonight I almost rolled over in my grave. For real, I thought it was just me, if feels good to know were all getting messed up.

Thanks for the replies! I'm glad to know it wasn't just me out there in the Twilight Zone! Everything seems back to "normal" now. I've got to remember to hit that Print button from now on!

When I went to check my Honesty counters I got a whole list of fake items too. Hit refresh and they were gone. We are now entering the Twilight Zone...(insert scary music here)
