Am I going nuts or hasn't the bid history always been lined up with the high bidder at the top? If you have ongoing auctions with multiple bidders, take a look at the bid history? When did they change this?

I saw that too...

I went to check on a closed dutch auction and it was normal...

Half hour later when I had to go back again it had flip-flopped...

weird huh?

It's not simply reversed, its in order of when the bids where placed, not in amounts:

From the Announcement Board:

Date: 10/23/2001
Time: 16:54:27 PDT

***Bid History***

Bid History is currently appearing chronologically by date, rather than from highest to lowest bid. All bids are shown. We are aware of this situation and hope to have it resolved in a few hours.

Thank you for your patience.

Regards,
eBay


Maybe this is because of the new Checkout feature they are starting to roll out and it messes up other things.

Things just strangely and magically happen at ebay and they have no clue....

I have a suggestion to them: Quit screwing with the code!

ebay must be on Federal work program. One team digs the ditch and the other team fills it back up.

What? And let all the third party auction management programs work properly for a while?
