Hi-- I don't think I've seen anyone mention this problem, but have any of you encountered this in list view of auctions: the entire line for the listing, except the price and end time, is blank?  No hotlink, no picture, nothing.  The only way to find out what the listing is for is to go into the compare window.  A real hassle and happens to me a lot.

I have had the same problem myself over the last few weeks. I have no idea why this is happening. It seems to occur more on UK auctions than US auctions but it is definitely occuring on both. :?

Amazing. An eBay/PayPal problem I'm not having!

Haven't seen that one myself, yet.

Well, if it's happening to you too bclarkie, maybe they're on to us-- too many good deals lately?

Wishful thinking.

I noticed this morning that hundreds of my listings in my Ebay store are doing this.  Checked some competitors, and they have the same problem. Really odd.  I wonder if Ebay is trying out some new coding or software; damn inconvenient of them.

This problem is certainly interesting.  See my post here in Interesting items on EBay about my R/RPGA modules that I posted but are not showing up in the post: Interesting Items Formerly on eBay • Page 91 • Collecting General •  The Acaeum

Interesting...................

Anyone else still having this problem? I have tried contacting EBay about it twice and they keep insisting that no one else has reported this problem and it must my cookies/temp files which its clearly not. I am starting to get annoyed. :x

I had it bad last night.  It happens both at home and (ahem at work) so it isn't a hardware problem per se.
