the trending thingy has been on the USA site for quite some time for items that I look at.

With the recent change to the menu bar to keep eBay.au in line with eBay USA and UK, I can only guess that it is standardising the eBay page across the globe.  Log in to eBay.com and you will get an idea about things to come.

I read in a thread last year that eBay.com allows sellers to open UnPaid Item cases after just two days . . . . . now that would be a change that I would welcome!
