As of today 9/9/2014 I am now unable to view specific dates of when feedback was left for a seller or buyer as previously able to in feedback panels.
It now displays just Past Month , Past 6 Months and Past 12 months.
This change makes it now impossible to determine time frames of sales or purchases of buyers and sellers and hense gives no indication of a buyer or sellers integrity in their feedback information and communication dates with other buyers and sellers.
If any one could it explain why the specific dates are now not available , I would appreciate their input regarding this recent change.
As far as I can determine there has been NO announcement by EBAY that this was occuring and no reason given for the changes.
Please explain if you know why ?
Many thanks ...............A concerned ebayer

It will also help scammers so that hijacked accounts aren't as easy to detect.
Now you wont be able to see whether a seller/buyer has had very recent transactions,(any stating 1 month
could be from up to 31 days before).
It actually makes you think at times that eBay is assisting the scammers,(so what do they get out of it?)
They wont remove or sanction scammers and some are protected so they must be knowingly assisting them,

Hi there,
Your reply was very helpful and the links provided was exactly the info I was after.
Thanks for your contribution to my post, but still makes you wonder why the info has been suppressed from the feedback panels, which is where you would expect it to be.
Cheers and happy ebaying

Their auction listings aren't getting many bids except for one of the accounts.
But that account has private listing - bidders' identities protected auctions or the top bidder has private
feedback.
So they can hide their shill bidding,
It was always going to happen as it seems to be the way things happen on here,(make a token gesture and then
let them return to their shill bidding),
eBay is making more money from them so they allow it and Trust & Safety no longer exist IMHO,

Like you, I'd really appreciate a logical explanation from eBay as to why they've done this, because I can see no valid reason for the change, other than to make our lives even more difficult than they were previously.
Whether it is logical or not is debatable but I think ebay has run out of real problems that they can fix so they do a few "improvements" just to prove to us that they are doing something. Too bad if we, the users of ebay, don't think that they are improvements.
