I've seen posts about this since February. How can this be broken for so long? Come on guys, the glitches are really piling up.

My theory on this has been that there's an error with data relevant to search/SEO is being corrupted/lost, and this is the reason for the statistical errors we're seeing on eBay AS WELL AS the issues with eBay search.
Today I just received some more credibility to this theory.
In May, there was a bug where any Guaranteed Delivery orders for 2 days had incorrect ship by dates of "1970", which marked them as all late.
In the last 24 hours, there's a bug where any listings being automatically relisted on eBay GTC listings, are having their images corrupted/lost.
Same type of bug. Different database.
Todays bug gives us 100% confirmation that the bug DOES affect the relisting system.
Let's say that bug affected eBay's SEO/Search data in listings. This would explain why some users/listings are having this problem, while others are not.
This is all a theory. But seems to be more and more likely.

If you want to share your issues in the thread I made, it might help. The more people we have in one place that band together saying we're all experiencing this issue, the harder it is for eBay to claim there's no issue.

My theory is that they are doing a massive site makeover to implement catalogs and the new system is wreaking havoc on the old system turning it into one giant mess. The changes and glitches are literally coming in daily.
Look at the bright side, ebay will likely kill off small sellers long before any new tax does.

I am so frustrated with this problem I was selling at least two items a week now since this started the 0 views no sales and it’s over a month!!! I have an EBay friend and they have never had the problem! I’m tired of hearing about all his sales and viewers. I hate to even list if the problem isn’t fixed because you don’t know if anyone can actually see your items
