Where did the auctions go?

I have about 6-8 sellers in China that I regularly bid on items, some of them daily.  I went to see check on a couple of things that I was watching and something really weird happened.  There is no auction at all and all items are 4.99,  in every single shop.  Most of them have anywhere from 300-900 items listed, normally.  Today, I was lucky to see 100 per shop and one only had 5 items.  Is there something going on that I don't know about?

Where did the auctions go?

I don't have an answer for you about what your situation is, but I had the same problem (https://community.ebay.com/t5/Buying-Q-A/I-cannot-see-a-single-Auction-in-the-search/qaq-p/31797690 ), and I got with the Chat help.  I spent about an hour, and they just gave me middle-of-the-road answers.  No hard data.  Weirdly, I gave up, rebooted to a different operating system, opened a separate account, and found the same results.

In a category I should have found 10,000 auctions, I found something like 30.  I pointed out to the other end of the chat that if I searched for "Porch Light," I would get 149,000 hits, but 158 auction results.  They either don't get it, or can't say.
