Ebay anomaly ?

Has anyone had any weird things with their ebay accounts recently?

I was bidding on a Pentax Super A with a 50mm but was too busy to watch the final outcome, I looked today and there is no sign of anything in my account, no watched items, no bids, wins or losses...nothing. It's as if my account has been wiped clean of all the history???

Its driving me nuts

Check your email account,
some sellers double/triple list and also stop/cancel if bids are not high bids, saying no longer available.
Then relist...this is now normal pratice.
I have contacted ebay about thisand they do nothing.
Quote" they have the right to sell to who they want".
"If they wish to cancel there auction thats up to them".
And the same sellers do it all the time, and you have nothing in
you ebay account, you get an email of ebay saying auction has been cancelled.

Yup, that was it, just checked my email and there it was, still find it strange that it should disappear from my ebay pages though

I didn't know such practice existed, not it was the norm! At to the list of things to be wary about on eBay I guess.

Thanks for the tip col55555ine.
