New update somehow fixed the ongoing vague "quitting early" problem I'd reported earlier. Great work as always Nev.

Great!

There's some odd behaviour on eBay's part when you do a New Today search.
Every so often, it will return a page which says there's only about one tenth of the results (eg 5000 instead of 50000) and no indicators to say the items are newly listed. So I do a check for some marker that only seems to appear on these new pages.

It's not 100% reliable but works well enough. There are a few more tweaks I can do to it.
