ebay advanced search not working.

Been doing this search successfully for many years, but occasionally it stops working for a while.

Has been working for many months now, but suddenly stopped working again.

Clicking on Advanced I then do:

In this category: Antiques

(ticked) Number of bids from: 1

(selected) From preferred locations: worldwide

Sort by price: highest first

View: all items

Results per page: 200

Instead of items listed by price, I get Shop By Category, Explore Antiques screen.

Then below are items not listed by price, & are only listed in Australia.

With the new format, eBay techs are fiddling and many things are not functioning as they should.

Try adding a keyword from your category name.

Lately there have been issues with browsing categories. Including a keyword -- even a general one that should match all items in a category -- and then searching seems to work more consistently.

Thanks eburtonlab.

[wrong thread, but another search feature is working again]

The Item location radius limit seems to be working for me now.
