Yep!
Ever see this before?
Not that I have 36 different seller items on my selling page but I have 36 of one sellers items on my item page.
I’m competing 36 items x 1, me, with this other seller on my own selling page.
Too too unfair. 36 to 1 stacked against me!

They ruined the site. I left and now just buy stuff and sold my inventory off

I see it all the time in mine.
I see several sellers items being promoted in your listing. eBay places them there to show buyers similar items.
Those sellers are paying eBay for that placement.

LOL...
Ebay is happier to have you as a buyer along with paying a store subscription that you don't use.

Actually there’s 1 item in that store.

The same screw ups for many other sellers..... I have seen this on my listings as well. Doing this, I wonder if EBay developers realize that most of planted listings are even not relevant to buyer's search. So annoying! If EBay keeps things simple it would be much better for everybody.

eBay wants stuff to sell. Does not matter if it is you stuff or someone else.
Your advertisement got the person to your page but just incase they may not be interested in your item then eBay gives them other options so they will hopefully buy something from someone.

Sorry that you're just noticing this. Yes, this is a desperation attempt to increase revenue from a slowly failing company. Unfortunately, desperate thinking is short-sighted and usually filled with consequences.

Sponsor items...promoted most likely. I have them and use it as a tool. Anyone selling what I have I lower my price. I also notice a lot of these sellers...on my page don't have a very good rating or feedback as well.
