Preview Option When Listing Shows a Scrambled Image

I have been experiencing a problem all day...when I hit the preview option to view my listing before posting, the words are all scrambled and compressed. Very frustrating to have the feature that allows me to double-check for listing errors to be mis-functioning.

Preview Option When Listing Shows a Scrambled Image

I'm having an issue with the preview option as well. My text in the item description is all scrunched up so it's difficult to read. I have the listing scheduled for tomorrow so I guess I'll try it then and keep my figures crossed that the actual listing will look okay?

 

eBay'ing has become so difficult and time consuming with all the unneccary changes that it takes away from my time to do more listings. I just don't understand why eBay doesn't get it and listen to the dismay of so many sellers. It's beyond being sad.

So it appears to be a systems error which is a relief. I'm just going to ignore it til they figure out what's wrong. Thank you for sharing...misery loves company. Fingers crossed it all works out. Good luck!

This glitch? has hit me too.

 

In FireFox 31, the preview button now does nothing - starting today? (didn't do any previews last few days so don't know when it began.)

 

In FF 31, the preview would normally be a popup overlay, and worked pretty well.

 

Tried in Firefox 40 and Firefox 52 also. In both of those, the preview appears, but is the old style popup window from the old 2 page advanced listing form,  and the description text is vertically compressed (looks like line-height attribute is hosed), and tables are mangled.

Same problem here.  Plus, you can't look at the pictures you included to make sure they are all there - just the first one.

 

When will Ebay software engineers realize that change just for the sake of change is NO good.  They always make things worse.  If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
