Saved Searches corrupted with + sign

[max-shiraz-us]

New saved searches save spaces as + signs and subsequently fail to match any items.

For example if I create a new saved search with these seach items:

1893 handel columbian exposition ticket

When I save the search it saves it like this:

1893+handel+columbian+exposition+ticket

and so if I click "View Items" then if finds zero matches. Happens on multiple browsers. The geniuses at ebay broke this about a week ago. Anyone else have this problem? In effect saving searches is now broken.

Thank you. This fix seems to work. Somewhat amazing that eBay has not responded on this. The week when the CEO of Facebook appeared in front of a US Senate hearing is not a good time for a big, unregulated monopolistic tech company to let down its customers. Jeff, do you want to have to explain to Orrin Hatch how eBay works?

Exact thing happening to me on two computers. Called Ebay today (4-14) and two techs were clueless. I'm running Macs on the latest OS.

Recently, each "saved search" I make has + (plus) signs between each word of my search title.  I have started the search as always but when I return to actually search, these plus signs are there, messing up the search...(long+sleeve+turtleneck).  This has only been happening in the past few weeks when I start a new search and save it. 

What am I doing wrong?  Thanks for your help.  Linda

I've been having the same problem.  Here's a work-around :

I was searching for: defi white racer pressure (it's an automotive gauge). As of this writing, I got 126 hits.  If I saved this search, the dreaded '+' sign corrupted any future executions of the search

Next I searched for:  defi * white * racer * pressure.  I got the same 126 hits.  When I save this search, it saves as "defi * white * racer * pressure" but that's okay.  It will execute or search properly (same number of hits).

I hope this is helpful.  eBay really needs to fix this programming glitch.
