Your empty search results when using GTINs with eBay's Browse API are likely due to **incorrect query syntax**. Instead of attempting to use `&gtin=` in the path, you must use the main search parameter `q` and specify the identifier type within the query string: **`/item_summary/search?q=GTIN:<your_gtin_code>`**. If the results are still empty after using this correct format, verify your **authentication token**, ensure the product is **actively listed** and not just an archival record, and confirm you are searching the **correct regional marketplace**.
