This morning I logged on the my page ... just to check in before church... I had 130 auctions on my page... I should have and do have 135. Scrolling down I find 4 auctions that are not mine.... they belong to 4 different sellers, one in France baby Burbury bloomers, one in the UK ladies sz 7x top, and 2 in the US perfume and ladies sneakers. They look like legit auctions just not mine and popping up on my page. SO I immediatly change my password and my paypal password. I go back to my page and they are gone... POOF! I drop the screen and bring up a new screen and there they are again. So I call ebay of course they are not alive on the phone, no powerseller support person, nobody. So I go to live chat (PHEW..... have they EVER answered one of you questions save the most basic and elementary of questions???) She says delete my cookies and files I do every day several times but I do this...then I give her the #s of the auctions the sellers name and locations ... she can't bring them up on my page. I told her they come and go but I was able to bring them up several times... including while "speaking" with her. They don't have a clue whats happening so here I am at my trusty sorce of information my Vendio friends....
What is happening has this happened to any of you... why does it happen, how can I stop it.... does it have anything to do with "cross-promotions?"

That happened to me before too. Scared the dickens out of me. Clear your cookies /temp files. close down everything. shut off your computer and turn it on again. Log back in and see if you have the same problem. I did it and it solved the problem. Let us know what happens

Paloma What ever it was It seems to be gone....????? I did all the shut down dump files thing ect before I posted here. I brought it back once an hour ago but now its gone .. I have looked at the other sellers pages and they are legit sellers with lots of auctions.I have to think that all this ebay search engine tinkering, and cross promotion and express CRAP is at the bottom of this problem for me today. Gosh darn.... now I can't go to church because I was playing with ebay instead of showering. I like to start my week off with a prayer and communion with my church family... this really bums me out!

This happened to me and several other sellers once - also on a Sunday. I know my items for sale showed a luxury home for sale for about $500,000 LOL....it's an ebay problem and not a pc problem. They got it straightened out but it was a mess for a while!If you see it again save a screenshot of your "My ebay" pages.

The next time it happens, send the seller an ASAQ from your page and see if it goes through. Tell them you want $15.00 per day for rental of your space. Then go on to church and let them hassle with Ebay.

Sounds like an internal problem with ebay's databases when you access the My Ebay page, but shouldn't have any affect your account or your buyers. (I don't think deleting cookies or changing passwords well help)

I often check a friend's page to see how her sales are going and this morning she had some weird stuff listed that I knew could not be hers. When I opened one of the items, it was a different seller.
Looks like an ebay problem.
I know this won't help you bjboswell but knowing you aren't alone can sometimes make you feel better.

Thanks all for your responses... As I said my immediate reaction was change your password this min and paypal password! I remember the days when I had the same single 4 number password for ebay and paypal I suspect alot of us do... those days are far behind us all. I think its an internal ebay tinkering around problem. Tonights problem seems to be paypal. I tried to print a label and I got a message that my ebay and paypal accounts are not "linked" when I went into my paypal profile and tried to look into it I got a we are having problems message. DURN!!! what a day..
