YES there is an actual view count freeze glitch in Seller Hub (see proof here)

Started sometime in the past 48 hours.  If you click on the blue underlined number, you will get a popup showing your actual view counts on that item.

I had this same problem! Is there a way to see this not on seller hub? I can't seem to find it on my seller dashboard. I just don't have my seller hub set up yet. No need to do more research, you have done more than enought. Thanks!

 

There definitely is a problem with this though. My auction views are a flat zero. Ebay get on it!

Yes it 's the Seller Hub page.  I don't think the app gives access to that (not sure) but even if you're on the app, the view count is also a blue hyper link.  Check it out:

Well. That explains a lot! I was wondering how I managed to get 7 watchers on a popular vintage bike part in less than 24 hours but with no views at all:

But yes, if I click on the Views count, it tells me that there have actually been 17 views so far:

So that's a(nother) bug. Shall we start a timer on how long it takes to fix?

Good catch @gurlcat !

 

Can you tell if it's only impacting listings started in the last 24-48 hours?

No, it's affecting ALL of them.  Here's one I posted 4 days ago.

But here's the good part: it's clearly another rollout-affiliated glitch, but for something GOOD!  Another member pointed this out, when you open up your Seller Hub:

And it does work!  However, it is sorting only according to the view counts that were there before the glitch kicked in, HA.  But hopefully they'll iron out the wrinkles fast.

What are the totals on that one just for today and yesterday? If you subtract the views from yesterday and today, do you get the total shown in Seller Hub?

 

eBay gave themselves some wiggle room here with a note on the view report page that says it may differ from other areas due to latency - my bet is right now they may be running at about a 2 day latency rate.

No the numbers don't align quite right; the popup viewcount adds up to 145 for yesterday and today.   443 - 145 = 298, not 308.  However, I wouldn't expect perfect alignment unless the glitch started right at Midnight between Tue and Wed night.  Am I making sense?  
    Now here's something I just noticed.  --Why the heck aint I had no promoted views yesterday or today?  I paid for PLE on this auction and it looks like it got promoted Sun-Tue, but not afterward???

@gurlcat  I just remembered there was something about sort by view in the Q&A segment of the Summer Seller Check in and they said they knew it was one of the most requested features but it was a technical challenge to get "up to the minute" data.

 

That makes me wonder if this is not in fact a glitch, but maybe in order to accommodate that feature, the trade off is they had to build in some latency/lag time. 🤔

Thank you for that.  Sounds possibly right, but I hope latency doesn't continue to mean 2+ days.
