What's happened to eBay? Won't apply filters to searches, now can't add listings to my watchlist.

For some time now the Ebay site will not apply filters when  I do a search -  specific sizes, colours, brand names etc.  & keeps changing the number of items on each  page of my Watchllist to 10 even though I keep selecting 25. Today it will not  add anything to my Watchlist.

Try the old age re boot, clear cache and cookies and try a different browser, I just added 4 items to my watch list now to check and no worries, so maybe glitching your end.

I have had a lot of problems with search filters though, I figured that was just me

Thanks for your reply. Yes, the watchlist problem seems to have fixed itself now, but still having problems with searches, so not just you.

The Watch List defaulting to ten items per page has been going on for a while for me. I would suggest bookmarking a version with 25 items per page or more, and using the bookmark rather than eBay's link:

https://www.ebay.com.au/mye/myebay/watchlist?custom_list_id=WATCH_LIST&page=1&items_per_page=25

Problems adding items to the Watch List can often be helped by signing out of eBay and then back in, particularly if you are getting a "Watch List full" message or the Watch button is greyed out.

I understand that some Safari users have been experiencing problems with selecting filter options since a recent update; try another browser if that is the case for you. Or try using the Advanced Search page to select those options, if possible.

Firefox seems to be working for me on a Windows 10 machine. I have noticed lately that some pages such as the Watch List and Purchase History have a problem with the drop-down in the upper left that can be used to reach the sign-out link no longer working, but that seems to be independent of which browser I use.
