Does any one ever access their ebay acct. by phone.Last night I used my cell phone to see how my auction's were doing.I was able to access "My Ebay" and I was able to go to "Item's I'm selling",But it did not show prices or bid's!! Has anyone ever done this and is there a way to see price's & bid's??? Any help on this subject would be greatly appreaciated!!!

I assume you have a digital phone that has Web access. I can access MyEbay with my Palm Pilot and a wireless connection, so I'm not sure this is EXACTLY the same, but I'm able to see prices, # of bids, starting and current bid. If I click on the item title, I can see who the high bidder is and even see the item description.
Could it be possible that because you have a smaller screen, you have to scroll down to see all of the information? Just a thought.

DOSB, I use my cell phone for tracking my auctions too. It's not very reliable (even less so than ebay); sometimes the service itself is down, other times the prices are missing as you describe.
It's lasted as long as several days, then suddenly clears up. None of the service reps I've talked to even know what I'm talking about, let alone tell me what's wrong.
Of course, it usually waits to act up when I'm at an auction and need to look up some prices really fast!

One thing I did notice was that sometimes the links wouldn't work. I found that by reloading the page, it would help. The pages may or may not load completely and it's hard to notice on a wireless.
