    Select Filters are Broken

    I’m guessing eBay is actively resolving this issue, but it seems like when you use a keyword search & don’t filter it by lowest or highest price first, you receive results. However, once you use one of these filtering options, all results are lost and you’re left with just similar search links as your available choices.

     

    is anyone else experiencing this same issue? It’s a bit annoying when you’re checking out the highs/lows of similar live listings.

    It's not broken, it's by design. It's been a long gradual slip where keywords and filters are blurred or ignored resulting in more search results. Where did the boolean asterisk search capability go? Why do clear keywords or exclusions often get ignored? My assumption is that eBay is just trying to pump more merchandise in front of eyes. Now the price filter prevents efficient sorting. Personally I'm less likely to mess with manually sorting a less capable dependable search and often just buy elsewhere to avoid giving the impression I support slick marketing ploys.

    Hi @street_challenged73 and @huffapro0. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. This has now been resolved and the fix will ship out in the next iOS app release.

    My experience of late is that the entire search criteria is screwed up, and ebay can't seem to fix a **bleep** thing unless they're 'fixing' what isn't broken.
