Ebay changed the look (and apparently functionality) of our Watch lists as of this morning. And now I can no longer delete items from it. I get an error message saying "There seems to be a problem serving the request at this time."
This is a problem since my watch list is full and I can't delete completed listings - which means I can't add anything new to it either.
I'm using a Mac desktop computer.

Yes, I'm also experiencing problems trying to delete items from my Watch List. They are not deleting and I get the same message you did. The number of items shown in my Watch List did reduce by the number of items I tried to delete (from 168 to 166), but only on the first page. When I go back to the page with the 2 items I tried to delete, they're still there and the number of items still shows 168. I know other posters will say to refresh, which has worked in the past with delete glitches, but I did that and it doesn't resolve the problem.
With the new Watch List drop down tool bar (that automatically lowers as you scroll up), you also see less watched items. I used to be able to see 3 items with photos and full descriptions and now I can only see 2.
I've been a customer for a long time and have a technical background and I continue to be amazed at the quantity of daily technical issues that keep occurring. Many new ones in the past couple of weeks!

If you are using Internet Explorer 11, try using a different browser; IE11 users are complaining of many problems with that browser particularly on the Watch List page. Firefox and Chrome are popular browsers that you should consider trying at least to see how they work.
If you try another browser and are still unable to use your Watch List, try using your Summary page or this "All Lists" link:
In the long term, trying another browser is likely your best option.

Thank you so much eburtonlab ,
I havnt been able to delete nothing in months and Ebay doesnt care enough to pretend they care.
I actually havnt been able to contact them, I cant figure out how.
I am concerned about this tax thing they have started.
I would like to contact them about that also.
I'm in Texas, I buy something in New York, I pay the tax, but who is getting the tax ?
New York, Texas, or Ebay ?
Thanks, Tim

You are very welcome!
I have never contacted anyone at eBay, so I do not have any recommendations there. I have found the Community boards here to be a great source of information, though. I understand it is possible to contact eBay through Facebook and Twitter:

https://www.facebook.com/eBay/
Texas passed a Marketplace Facilitator Tax Law taking effect October 1st -- so from then on anything ordered from an online marketplace will be taxed if it is delivered to an address in Texas. Those taxes will be collected by eBay and other marketplaces and turned over to the state government of Texas.

Thanks again Rockstar !!
Several years ago when Ebay was just a few years old you could actually talk to them on the phone.
They had a phone number in the "contact us" button.
An Ebay guy help me delete cookies on my computer.
I didn't know much about computers at that time.
I Still don't actually. LOL LOL LOL
Seeya, Tim

If you are in the US, you should be able to get a phone number to call (or have eBay call you) at the bottom of the Help & Contact link at the bottom of the page.
Take care.

I am able to delete sold, out-of-stock and other "dead" items from my watch list by going to "Watching" (at left on My ebay page), ticking the boxes for the ones to be deleted, and then clicking "Delete". Whereas, trying to delete items on the My ebay Summary page does not work. Windows 7 desktop.
