Severe slowdown in the updating of the object search display pages on eBay
Summary: callier25 expressed frustration with the slow loading times of eBay's search result pages, attributing it to the new feature displaying multiple photos of an item. They suggested either removing this feature or allowing users to disable it. lingma85 suggested clearing browsing history and checking the internet connection, which did not resolve the issue for callier25. francexpressdeal clarified that the forum is run by eBay users and suggested contacting eBay directly, as they rarely revert changes once implemented.
Hello everyone and especially hello to the Ebay team,
For about a week now, I’ve been noticing a major slowdown in the updating of the display pages for item searches on Ebay.
This slowdown coincides with the display on the first results page (search) of all the photos for the same item by scrolling through them (small right or left arrows on the first photo).
The page-by-page refresh of the items searched takes forever, which makes me page less, so search less, so find less, so buy less!
Either you remove this display, which for me is useless (if an item interests you, you simply click on the first photo and then on the others once the page for that item is open!)
Or you add an option to hide all the photos of the same item on the first page via the display settings.
Thanks in advance for your replies and ideas
Regards RC

if you want to address the eBay team, you’re in the wrong place...
You’re on the site’s help forum, where the contributors are eBay members just like you.
In any case, whatever changes are made, you need to understand that eBay NEVER goes back...
Of course, nothing is stopping you from sending them your comments via the contact form.

Mentor3 days agoHello @callier25
There are certainly all kinds of bugs on the site...
But... there could also be a machine problem on your end or from your ISP.
check whether the recent history that can clog up your browser's memory isn't too large....
You need to clear it...
if you're working on a phone... delete the current download and replace it with a new + more recent one...
Download the app | eBay
etc...
Kind regards
.

OP3 days agoHello and thanks for your reply,
I carried out a full history clear, but I haven't noticed any significant improvement in the loading time of Ebay pages.
For info, I have a download speed of 426 Mb/s and an upload speed of 931 Mb/s
