Cannot load Summary page, can't load "Selling" or "All Selling" - Get 404 Error

[w5kp]

Since yesterday morning, can't load any page related to selling. Attempts to load My eBay Summary page give "404 Error". Can't load any page related to Selling. Other eBay pages are fine. Can search and see my items for sale, but can't do anything with them as the seller, unless I "back door" by clicking on the notifications bell in upper right and going directly to the item description. But for that to work the item has to have been sold already, of course.

Using Hughes Satellite Gen4, all other web functions/pages/sites are fine. I have tried four different PC's with Win10/7, plus several iOS mobile devices, same prob with four different browsers. Have also bypassed my router/network by plugging a single PC directly into my satellite modem. Same result. Am I alone here or are others having problems like this? Getting pretty frustrated with eBay here.

Hmmm, you may need to call them.

Since this is Friday morning, and ebay usually does maintainence on Thursday night, maybe they started earlier and 'fixed' something.

Yep, that's what I'm afraid of, lol.
Just noticed one other thing that I can't remember ever seeing before. In the web URL for MyEbay, it now says: "http://www.ebay.com/myb/Summary?MyEbayBeta#GoTo240"

I didn't sign up for any MyEbayBeta testing - is this URL correct??? Where did the "Beta" thing come from?

Further investigation reveals following:

Clicking on "Summary" under the "My eBay" menu on upper right of My eBay page returns

"http://my.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? MyEbay&gbh=1&CurrentPage=MyeBayAllSelling&ssPageName=STRK:ME:LNLK:MESX" (with the ALL SELLING highlighted in blue)

Clicking on the blue  "All Selling" returns the error

"404 Not Found - The requested URL /ws/eBayISAPI.dll was not found on this server."

Sheesh... Now I'm really confused.

Well, I noticed that they took the selling out of the summary page.

What good is having a summary if you don't get all of the info you WANT on your summary page? Why should I have to keep 2 tabs open or switch screens to flip between bidding and watching and selling/sold?

What incompetent thought this up? They need to stop hiring from overseas or from colleges. They need to get programmers and designers with real life experience. A degree is worthless for programming - all that does is put more work on others to 'deprogram' the book-learning from these people and then train them to be smarter than a 5th grader.

Yeah, noticed that the Selling Section was removed from the Summary Page as well. At first I thought it was because of active content that they said that I had in my listings. So when I corrected all that, Selling Section was still not showing up. Whomever was the idiot that thought this was better for sellers needs to have their head examined. Ebay needs to realize when they make it harder for the sellers, it hurts Ebay in the long run. Just like years back when they thought it was a good idea to remove the sellers ability to give bad buyers negative feedback. No longer does the seller have protection. 9 times out of 10 Ebay will side on the buyer. Maybe the "Spring Cleaning" needs to be done on the Ebay team members that think up these idiotic ideas up!

I've been clicking on the 'Tell us why it stinks' link every time I go in there.

Thanks, everybody. At least I know I'm not alone in this manmade wilderness.

After being an eBayer since 1998 under the same ID, I guess it's time to look for some other way to sell on the Internet, since it appears eBay is furiously intent on being the next AOL or MySpace. I wish them luck. Nothing good lasts forever, and eBay management seems to have spent the past three or four years hiring rookie coders to continually tinker around fixing what ain't broke. The resulting convoluted, conflicted, self-defeating mess of user-incomprehensible spaghetti that is their website is finally beginning to collapse under its own weight. So be it.

I've had it, and I'm now officially hunting for an alternative. If anybody has suggestions for a decent "elsewhere" to go, I'm listening.

Same here. What a stupid move... moving the Selling summary out of the summary page. Let's complain and complain... until they put it back in there!!!

I get those a lot when I try to open other peoples listings. I have to keep trying back later.

When is a "summary" not a summary? When it's an Ebay page. All I can see on my "summary" page is items I'm watching. What good is this? How does this help me, how does this help Ebay, how does this make things easier?
