Posted By: <b>Robert {Bigb13}</b><p>Now you can't even check in search for bidders and see what people are bidding on. Whats up now? Rob

Posted By: <b>Mike H</b><p>I'm hoping this is a temporary problem. They havn't changed the search criteria check boxes. You can still select completed auctions only. Why would they leave that option if there isn't an option to do otherwise?

Posted By: <b>Robert {Bigb13}</b><p>That is correct. But why would ebay want us to be able to <DIV>identify shill bidders? Don't they want the price to go has high as possible so they can make more on the fee? Rob</DIV>

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>No longer works for me either. I noticed a completely different layout of the ebay page this morning that is going to make it very difficult to scroll through some of my saved searches. Ebay seems to be back to the old page layout now though. I wonder if they are testing a new system?

Posted By: <b>Larry</b><p>There are many problems with e bay recently including a new format that they somehow have tried to institute, and shipping charges that need to be revised are going into a different category.

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Mine still works. You can see which items any member of ebay is currently bidding on, whether he (she) is high bidder and all items bid on in the last 30 days, whether won or lost.

Posted By: <b>RC McKenzie</b><p>When I attempt to search what others are bidding on I get a message that says 'To protect bidder privacy some auctions are not available etc..'<br /><br /><br />Not that I look to see what others are bidding on.. lol<br />
