My closed auctions look quite different tonight. I always go to the auction to leave feedback, but that option is now missing, and there is the buyers zip code, the value of the auction and a reference to my store, which is very nice. Is this just a glitch or an intentional change do you think?

Typical eBay FUBAR - eBay (and PayPal) always mess around with their website at this time of year just to screw things up for sellers. You probably want to check that your next invoice is correct too!

Ebay is REALLY having some problems tonight! The following jibberish is what I got when I tried to bring up my "seller's auctions" page to make sure my last two auctions had launched at 9pm since I didn't receive a listing confirmation email...

Thanks Sparkz, I already deleted them a bit earlier in the day but I will do it again just to be sure. I will just have to be "cookieless" again...
I had a few auctions launch around 3:30 today and 3 of them said that "this item was for local pickup only" in the shipping details at the bottom of the page. I wondered if I had changed my preferences without knowing. Even thought for a minute Jack was handling my auctions. (hehehe) Then I went in to edit them and they were fine. Ebay has been a bit off all day.

I was having the exact same problem as Amber today. I could access my Ebay sellers page from a bookmark, but the closed auctions were not showing the feedback links or anything else. I had to log out of Ebay, then log back in again and it cleared up. Earlier, I had made a second chance offer to an underbidder. It prompted me to sign in again. The login page was the old one that I havn't seen on Ebay for at least a year or two. Really weird things going on behind the scenes. I wish they wouldn't tinker during the busy season.

Be sure to check your item counts as well! Sold 4 items out of a store listing for 5. As luck would have it I went to the listing and it says that I have 2 left. Hmmmm...5-4=1, at least that was what I was taught in school. Couldn't change the number of items by revising so I just ended the item! Great, they want honest sellers but they get to do fuzzy math.

I hope eBay intend putting the options back, not only is it more complicated to leave feedback, also the "list similar item" is missing.

My feedback option on the auction itself is not there anymore either! I haven't listed on Ebay since May and my goodness are there alot of changes! I guess I have to use "my Ebay" for everything now.
OH, and when I viewed my seller account, there was no item name only "item title not available" and the auction number with a clickable "view item". Now that should make for one heck of an accounting nightmare for someone who sells alot. I can't imagine going through 1,000 or more items and writing what it was next to the "item title not available". Of course, they charged their fees.

I still haven't had this problem (though I have seen "title not available" on my seller account and it WILL be a nightmare if they don't get it fixed!). I use Mozilla Firefox and only have to sign in once and once in awhile when I do something "special" like revise an auction.
Mozilla is wonderful! It works just like IE! it looks like IE - imports your bookmarks. It blocks the pop-ups and is much FASTER than IE. You can have a bunch of tabs open at the top and navigate between open screens with a click.
You all know I am not a computer genius like Glassgrl so it HAS to be easy or I wouldn't be touting it!

I have used the eBay invoice system since it was easy, simple and required the buyer to do nothing except send money. Now the option to send an invoice is missing from the item page. This is a mess since I have a different shipping amount for each item I sell, so now I have to go to the item page then back to "My eBay" to send an invoice. I don't know what genius made this change, but I would like to meet him or her some day so that I could make my opinion of their "IMPROVEMENTS" known to them.

FLASH: THERE IS NO CHANGE!!! YOU GUYS AREN'T SIGNED IN PROPERLY!! THAT'S ALL - NO CHANGE NO CHANGE!!
THERE STILL IS A "SEND INVOICE" "LEAVE FEEDBACK" BUTTON! BUSINESS AS USUAL!!
Try clearing your cache and cookies and then sign out and in again. If you can't get IE to work then use Mozilla

Yes, thanks guys, I have to sign out and sign in every time now, never had to do it before, so I guess there is a bit of a change. Emptying cache made no difference.
