Has anyone else not been able to get the
highest price items
lowest price items
anymore, it now lists with highest and lowest shipping price, this is the box you click on to get newest listed items, ending soonest etc.

Makes me mad also! Why does ebay always screw up something good?

I see they screwed the pooch on that one. That sucks. Made it easy to search for cars by price for me.

I agree! They say the squeaky wheel gets the oil. Possibly if we all collectively make enough noise. Who knows, huh.

jesh! Not sure which is worse. My grammar and spelling or ebay.

am I missing something here. I always check highest first and they are still in order with the highest price first. I don't see that anything has really changed

It use to say... highest first.
It now says something like... highest first + shipping.
Then when you click on it... most times it gets all mucked about to say the least!

Surely not as easy to navigate but if you really search you might find a high dollar item with cheap shipping way down the list. If you charge a lot for shipping you get your item pushed up the list higher. I agree they should have left it alone and as a buyer you can figure out the shipping. Another thought if you put no shipping where does your item end up. HAGD Ted

THEIR UNREAL!

now they appeared to have removed all the various completed items field etc .. lets hope its not another permanent ebay making it better ideas, eh

Hi adding the shipping in does slightly distort the search but it is part of your cost- ---on some searches the completed itens are now listed as recently sold items- put your ideas and comments in their suggestion box - or email ebay- they have listened in the past if enough people complain- If you are a power seller call them- ebay does want your feedback-
they have takes a few steps backward in the automatic nightly searches they run- I run about 30 diff searches each night - some require a little patience--- if you run a search and want it every day - click on the save this search-
It appears ebay has people just looking for something to do and they feel that they have to keep changing things- Im a beleiver for the most part- If It aint broke- dont fix it- thanks don

ps: have already contacted and spoken with them voicing our suggestions and concerns etc
