What will you do with them then?

Just received a glitch.

I'm watching an item and it has 2 hrs to go but I have received a notification that it has ended.

So I checked and sure enough it has 2 hrs to go.

OP does this count as a bug?

How do you know they are not being caught by your auto blocks? Just because you don't have them on your blocked bidders list does not mean that they have not got too many strikes, or are not in an area that you don't post to.

Hi Lyndal

Because they have bought off me before and I don't have them on any list let alone BBL.

This buyer and other buyers that are after a particular item ask if I could let them know when I'm selling that item which I gladly do,so in this case I informed this buyer and a day later they said they were blocked from buying so looks like bugs bunny strikes again.

Fair enough.....very little surprises me with ebay these days.

Have you tried putting that buyer on your exemptions list? It is supposed to override all blocks.

I too have had regular customers suddenly unable to buy items which they've bought from me previously due to some unannounced block, and exempting them from all blocks made no difference.

Ultimately, I had to end the listing and relist the items with different item numbers, and afterwards they immediately worked. It only ever happened with 2 items and it has never happened again, but to this day I still have no idea what caused it.

Same as cq-tech.

But not really sure either apart from which probably doesn't have anything to do with it is I use AdBlock Plus but I decided to remove it and now the buyer is able to bid/buy again.

So what and if did the ABP have to do with it,probably and most certainly nothing but it's all good now,so nothing will surprise me from now on regarding ebay glitches.

While looking around what ebay has to offer and saving some listings in My Ebay.

Once the listing is in My Ebay Summary the listing changes to US pricing...once you open the listing in My Ebay is reverts back to AUD???? Very misleading

I'm here to report the same thing. It's very annoying.

hi, some buyers are automatically blocked because of the settings by the seller eg having more than 1 npb strike in 1 month , not being phone verified , not having feedback up to a certain figure etc .. some of these settings are automatic i think but after i checked mine i saw the problem. cheers

it wasnt a block preventing them from buying again within a certain time period of the last time was it ? when you relisted the items the time diff changed ?

Re: eBay Bugs

beez*kneez — Thu, 19 May 2016 10:39:09 GMT

what kind of notification was it ? a popup window in the corner ? they usually say ending soon ..unless your settings are set to be notified of an item ending you wont be.. check your settings in your personal profile for notifications

eBay.com.au

Going to "My Messages" a pop up window appers asking me to "Sign In" all in a foreign language (could be Italian or Spansih), the language changes to a different on almost each time I try to access my messages. Someone has been tinkering !

There have been reports all over the boards of the language issue....it has been happening since last week.

If you have a look there have been several workarounds posted.

nyah, got the same issue @redsails1946. I found a work around though, hover your pointer in My eBay and click My Messages. i think there's a problem with eBay servers.
