ebay problem
clairetoo - 21/3/10 at 07:15 PM

This is driving me mad - I can sign in to my ebay , but when I try to list something for sale it asks me to sign in - and all that happens when I do is..............it asks me to sign in
I can open another tab , go to ebay and I'm signed in - unless I try to sell something , in which case the whole `please sign in' thing starts all over again

Any ideas ? ?

No idea how to even check that one , but I have bought stuff on ebay today without this problem , and listed several bits during the week - again , no problems ?

Internet options, delete cookies.

eBay fires cookies at you like nobodies business, I have heard of this problem before on eBay forums.

Be very careful had a smiler problem a year ago, I logged into what I thought was the ebay site, but some arse stole my identity and put bid's on several expensive items including a violin, the bird selling it was livid as she was relying on the money. Anyway it took ages to sort out.
