eBay not notifying successful bidder of outcome of an auction.
It seems that eBay is having problems notifying the bidder of successful outcome of an auction. I bought four items this evening, from two different sellers (from whom I buy regularly). They got stuck at the "We're determining the winner. Please refresh the page" stage. I had to open a conversation with the seller for each individual item, selecting the item from the eBay message screen, and informing the seller of the problem. The items were listed with a delivery time for my UK postcode, so the system knew I'd won. By sending the email, the item somehow became unlocked and I could pay. Anyone else have this problem? I looked for the Chat option but couldn't find it anywhere. Has it disappeared?

·5 months agoThere was a problem earlier with sold items not transferring to orders.
It all seems to be resolved now though.
