Unable to add item to the Watch list

[collector_robert]

Anyone else not being able to add more items to their Watch list as of today? (Yes, I checked and my list is not full)

I mean, it's been broken for a while where I had to add an item, refresh the page and then add it again for it to actually register (on desktop, using Chrome) but since today, no matter how many times I add the item and then refresh, it never adds it to the Watch list. Just wondering whether I am the only one?

I have seen a couple of similar complaints, though I am still able to add items to my Watch List.

Sometimes signing out of eBay completely, restarting the browser and then signing back in can help with Watch List issues. If that does not help, try another browser to rule out a browser issue.

Its a shame when ebay being broken yet again stops a buyer from performing desired tasks which, in effect, reduce sales for sellers.

On the bright side, you wont be getting the unusable 'Offers' sent to you, silver lining and all.

Yes, it's a shame that this is the state of things on eBay. Worst thing about it is that it makes you believe that you added it to your Watch list. Heart symbol turns dark and the number of watchers goes up. It's only when you refresh the page that it goes away and you realize it was never on your Watch list in the first place. I wonder how many potential buyers never realize that this is what's happening and never actually save items that they were potentially interested in.

The site is a shambles up to what it used to be like - when did you last enter ebay and not be met with errors of some description?

There is little point in telling anyone you stumble across from ebay, best to just warn newcomers as to what to expect, so should they have any illusions they should tred elsewhere.

Anyway, it seems to be working ok again today (and by ok I mean that it adds item to the list after the first refresh). I haven't changed anything so this must have definitely been something to do with eBay.
