eBay

eBay has been alerted several times. Still not fixed. Many of our ads 'bodies' / descriptions are super slow to appear, avg. 10 seconds. Tested on various browsers / outlets. Reps even have acknowledged the errors when prompted to visit one of our listings. We answer so many questions about the body of our ads not appearing and have to contunually tell buyers to be patient ebay is working on it and if they wait long enough the ad will appear in full. what am I paying for? smh See: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1954-ROLEX-OYSTER-PERPETUAL-6334-14K-SHELL-AUTO-WRISTWATCH-DK-BROWN-ALLIGAT...

The Rolex listing description loaded just fine, but the page hung for about 15 secs waiting on shipsaver.biz

Once I slapped a blocking filter on that domain page reloaded ok.

I tossed a block on Froo stuff while I was at it - it added a few seconds to the load, but mostly because as a buyer on eBay I don't do galleries, checkout, tracking, rewards, promotions, animations, or any of that 3rd party fluff, and back out of listings that won't display fully or function with that stuff blocked. (Just a tinfoil perspective FYI)

How do I get rid of that shipsaver? I would never use them.

Never seen it before, but it's something you put there, not eBay.

There is an Inkfrog target tag on the link to the shipsaver.biz banner, so maybe it's a part of Inkfrog junk you used at one time, and is just unused legacy wreckage left over. I have no idea if they can remove it or if you have to do it yourself (but I suspect you have to do it)

One of the calls in question is HTTPS://www.shipsaver.biz/88x33_black.png which hangs and times out because shipsaver.biz doesn't respond at all (although domain appears to still exist).

You might be able to use the bulk editor to remove it by replacing the following block of code with nothing in all your listings:

<link href="HTTPS://www.shipsaver.biz/styles/banner_css.php?seller=shoecitychampions" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
Reload the page to get source for: https://www.shipsaver.biz/styles/banner_css.php?seller=shoecitychampions
</link>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">  <font face="Arial" color="#000000"></font>  </span>
<div class="shipsaver_banner" align="center" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14pt;">
 <a target="inkfrog" href="HTTPS://www.shipsaver.biz/?from=eBay">
  <font size="4" face="Georgia" color="#000000">
   <img border="0" src="HTTPS://www.shipsaver.biz/88x33_black.png" alt="ShipSaver logo">
  </font>
 </a>
 <font size="4" face="Georgia" color="#000000">
  <img border="0" src="HTTPS://www.shipsaver.biz/shipsecure.gif" alt="ShipSaver logo">
 </font>
 <div style="display: none;"> <font size="4" face="Georgia">ShipSaver</font> </div>
</div>

A problem with the bulk editor approach is that it is sensitive to every space and linefeed in the find and replace terms, so you would have to copy and paste from the HTML source of one of your listings that has it (the above was grabbed from a Firefox Firebug addon window and was reformatted so is useless for use in the bulk editor), and hope that some or all of the blocks of code in the listings are exactly the same. If not, have to repeat for the ones that differ.

I reloaded your Rolex watch listing page again - it loaded but never finished this time and hung waiting for shipsaver.biz.
