Bugs when using advanced search in ebay

Since 2 days ago, whenever I use a customised advance search, it will automatically default to a 48/50 item page instead of the usual 192/200 items i have specified in the search. Only the first page has 192/200 items. The subsequent pages all have only 48 items no matter how many times i click on the "items per page'' 

Example:

 

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=singapore&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=260&_udlo=&_udhi=&_ftrt=901&_...

 

I have made this customised search but it will invariably revert to 48 items after the 1st page, despite the "200" in the command line above.

 

How to get rid of this bug?

Using your search, I am seeing the same behavior you describe. Page 2 seems to change to 48 items per page, despite the way the search is set up for 192 items per page.

 

One possible workaround -- I changed your search URL from a /sch/ search to a /dsc/ search, and page 2 seemed to work as expected. Not sure why the different behavior between the two types of search.

If you have saved or bookmarked searches that exhibit this page 2 behavior, try changing the URL as above and re-saving or bookmarking the new search, or using the new search as a starting point for future searches.
