Until a few days ago whenever I would get a bid on something, the current price would be green instead of black so you could spot it immediately. Now ALL the numbers are black whether they have a bid or not so I do not know if there is a bid on my auction without clicking on it. Why? Why do my auctions with bids no longer show up green so I can immediately see them?
Thank you for your help.

Unfortunately, I think eBay has removed this feature. Having the auctions easily visible with green or red prices in contrast to buy-it-now's in black font was a convenience. The explanation given was this was a "streamlining" modification and because 'most sellers list buy-it-now' instead of auctions. That frankly makes no sense at all. It makes the platform less convenient for sellers, and in what way does removing that handy visual "streamline" things for Sellers??? This is just another one of those inexplicable downgrade in features.

I just started having this issue yesterday 12/26/24. This is the first time encountering this. I liked the easily color coding to see which auctions had bids! It doesn't make sense to take this feature away. I hope they bring it back or we can change it back??

I have the same issue, but it comes and goes. There was color earlier today on my work computer but just black on home computer. It would be nice if someone from ebay would address such questions but I guess they don't give a crap.

I just started to have the same problem, no `red or green numbers that are immediately visible. Why do eBay's programmers insist on making things harder for sellers with every change they make? If I got a nickle for every time they messed something up, I'd be rich by now.
The sad thing is that there is no way to contact anyone at eBay to complain about the changes. They just don't care, I guess. At least we cane vent on this forum, for what good it does.

I noriced that, its one less helpful feature. It was probably difficult to program for the cell phone, so they eliminated it.
They probably prefer some widget that blinks and has some text about another sellers listings I should buy.
