Find Similar Items

Is this new ? An icon in bottom left hand corner of item listing photograph. (magnifying glass inside square). Click it and the eBay 'Ai' will find items from other sellers. A feature used on many Chinese eCommerce platforms. Very handy for buyers to find cheaper prices from your competitors.... and 'overseas' sellers !

However, the icon is not visible on every listing, so maybe the 'Ai' has already trawled through all the listings and determined there are or aren't alternative matching products.

I just looked at the item #174555832893 and couldn't see it?

Same item came up like this for me - haven't noticed it before TBH

It's not really 'in your face' IMO

It's here alright. I suspect eBay are testing it out on selected sellers, items and buyers... it could backfire by helping buyers find same products but cheaper which in turn reduces eBay revenue. However it could be a valuable search tool helping buyers find what they are looking for.

Hmmmm….category specific, perhaps?
