They increase watchlist max capacity?

It appears Watchlist capacity has increased? I currentlu have 463 items watched, I recall max being 400.

i have (for a very long time) struggled with the max ~400 watchlist b/c I was watching so many weekly auctions. Not old clutter, literally 99% new weekly auctions (i buy to resell so I watch/bid/buy a lot). I admittedly haven't been watching as many the past month or two. However today I went thru and added a ton to watchlist... went to clear out the watchlist to add room and avoid max capacity and saw I have 463 items added.

Since when did they raise the max? What is the new max? (I could brute force it to find out but if someone knows the # I'd appreciate it)

Thank you EBay!! â¤ï¸â¤ï¸

@ajs_coins_and_alchemy,

If you use a computer go to your watch list page and on the filters line click on the Status option, then select ended. (I do not know if that option is on the App) If there are 63+ items that have ended still in your list that maybe ebay isn't counting those any longer, and it is why you can go over the 400 item limit.

Then of course ebay may have increased the number of items that can be in a watch list without telling us.

FYI same info can be gathered on my Android Mobile app (relatively new filter feature, last few months or so? Definitely think added w/in last 6 months).

No, definitely not 63 ended items. My 400 limit always accounted for Active and Ended. I had 462 Active & 1 Ended at time of post. Either I broke through with a glitch, or more likely they increased the Max Limit. I appreciate that a lot. No more ridiculous widdling of watched listings mid-week

Apparently limit is now 500. Just hit the limit now. Haven't seen/read anything to confirm the increase, just purely based off my experience right now.

Yeah it definitely increased. I've always had issues staying under 400 also. Id guess not too long after you made this initial post.
