I just noticed my seller notes are in some strange language. Everything else is in English. I'm on ebay's US website. Anyone else?

I guess it's not "strange" to Germans. 😉

This a weird ebay glitch that I see from time to time.

I'll be tooling along on this site doing whatever I'm doing to keep up and suddenly I'll find myself looking at

a page in German, French, Chinese (I assume)

Hit refresh or the back button and it goes back to English. Ebay's version of english.

I assume I'm taking getting skirted over to something that's not ebay.com

On a related note, I noticed they also changed the programming a bit in the back end of these notes. It's probably a side effect of some other change.

Previously I was able to write notes in separate lines... for instance:

1.

2.

3.

and so on.

But now when I do that, stupid ebay translates it into html code and spits out the note in one continuous line as:

1. 2. 3. and so on.

Freaking annoying seeing that all the time.

Not because you are in Sri Lanka now?

I'm experiencing the same thing.

Happens on a regular basis. I have had German several times on various pages and the other day my item tracking was in French!

Ain't ebay tech great? 🙄

Yes! I have had this for about a month now. When I ship, do feedback, or archive my sales as I do everyday I see it. I just do exactly what I have been doing for 23 years anyway. And glad we don't get paid in marcs!

@inhawaii - @coffeebean832 brought this up in a chat a while back as well.

It seemed like it was possibly affecting functions that are using the new "pop up" styling/design, which it looks like your seller notes box is, so this might be another good example for tyler@ebay .
