Is Yahoo ever going to list the auctions by ending times again? Now it looks like Amazon and it sure knocks out the bidders who browse.

It doesn't look like they are going to change it back but all bidders have to do is choose what order they want:

Right under thumbnail pics is this line
{show only photos} Sort by: Photo | Title | Price | Bids | Time Left

They simply click time left to get the ads in ending soonest order.

hey Note all the new auction as I relist and put up new on yahoo are going back in the order they should be in buy date only the old auctions that havent ended yet are still out of order.

so this mess we had when they did the up date last month is not perminate as you relist your new sales and the old ones end you will get back in order..

Have you checked that out in the photos only also?

Not the new sort by photo which only gives a list view of photos!

I did PHOTOS ONLY last week and know all my auctions were on page 48 of 70 plus even though they were ending with in hours! NEVER ADVANCED!

I have some ending in 6 hours so maybe I will give it a look see where they are at?

If AOL leaves me on line long enough! I wish DSL or Cable would migrate to the foothills!

No I have not confermed this with show photo only.

since I am not my own buyer I dont concern my self with the thumb nail veiws I just make sure a photo thumb nail can be seen.

I can under stand the concern bidding was picking up big time for me last month since the second week in august when these changes took place I have had one bid not good I hope old bidder will take time to get use to and learn the new system as well as now add CC verification to be able to bid on any sales as of next week.

if not the great sales we seen all last fall and up till april most the early rush will be lost if they dont.

I went out to page 27 of 67 in photos only and gave up!

I don't expect them to show, even when the auctions are down to the last 2 minutes!

Photos only is too slow to browse 10 pages yet alone 20 plus!

A Picture is still worth a 1000 words!

Even though some folks have been touching them up!

"It doesn't look like they are going to change it back but all bidders have to do is choose what order they want"

Amazon just about proved that bidders won't do this.

I know the photos only in time sequence was what some of my bidders liked that followed me from E-Bay!

As a matter of fact I got several additons to my collection that way!

Oh well! Time will tell!

Always looking for another spot!
