Hi Nev,

Ebay are up to their usual tricks, and AS isn't catching that a change has happened...

I am searching for "busch land rover" on ebay.de but in their infinite wisdom, ebay are redirecting this search to "buch land rover" (claiming there are 0 results for the original search, when actually it returns 185)!

If AS is not catching this unwanted search redirect here, where else is it missing similar redirects?...

Thanks
Andrew

Ok, I have code in AS already that handles that but it appears maybe it's a different parameter for the German eBay site.

I'll see what I can do...

Thanks Nev.

Ebay Germany seem to be up to more tricks. I have watchlist items now with blank auction titles, sellers, time left etc. All seem to be ebay.de based and sold in euros.

Hi Nev,

Unfortunately I still see issues with Ebay Germany - some items come up with no details and they then appear in Price History. But at least the item number is caught correctly, and they can still be viewed.

But the particular search "Busch Land Rover" does not seem to cause problems any more (the redirect has gone).

Kind Regards
Andrew
