eBay

I keep getting 0 results in every category I try to search in. Both on the web and on the app. Today I tried searching for certain common minerals, such as tigers eye, in the category fossils, minerals, which I have done before and I know there should be thousands of products in that category.

There seems to be many having search issues, not sure why
What browser are you using?
I just used windows 10 with edge, did your exact search and came back with below screen shot

Got 6380 results for 'tigers eye' (no quotes) in Rocks, Fossils and Minerals in Win XP & Firefox 3.6.24 starting at 'ebay.com/sch/' and choosing Rocks, Fossils & Minerals category to begin search.

I just can't make search fail like others here are reporting. It could be account related (highly doubtful), dependent on how the search is performed (from a bookmark, starting at ebay.com/sch/ like I did, etc), or might be device/browser dependent (haven't seen any clear pattern to that).

Yes, me too for more than a few days. That is just the half of it.... Spare a thought for the seller who does not get his / her item seen or sold. Grrrrr! I have been merrily relisting my "unseen" stuff and each time reducing the start price in order to attract interest. Easy to see in myebay that there are 0 viewers and / or watches after a few days into the listing in a popular catagory....stamps or toys and hobbies for example. Maybe they (ebay) will get around to fix it. Hope for the best out there and good luck.

BTW It seems I have a split personality. I am listed as a "pathfinder" but have been on ebay since 1998. Still looking for my path? Maybe.

Its a country specific bug oin ebay which has been around for a few days now. If you login to ebay via a US VPN it works fine again. Amazingly bad that they have such a serious bug for 4 days!

Pathfinder is a title for board posting only not anything to do with years on ebay .
The community staff came up with badges and titles , they mean nothing

Also seems everyone posting here with search issues is outside the USA !
