This Is Probably Obvious, but....
Permalink Closed

 


when you do a search on ebay and it shows maybe 300 items, with pictures.  then, below it is about 100 items that are all buy it now, but the pictures don't show up.  is there a way so that all items show pictures, including buy it now items? 


does this make sense.  it's driving me nuts because when i see those items at the bottom, i don't want to click on each one to see if it's something that i like.  please put me out of my misery!    thanks!

i think those are people who didn't choose the gallery option, but that have pictures in the auction itself. i usually don't bother to look at them because i end up being too annoyed to click on each item!

I think so too & I don't look at them either. Which is why I think the stupid 0.35 is worth it!

I am pretty sure ebay took away the gallery option for items that aren't auctions (only BIN). Because none of them have pictures anymore, and I doubt every single person chose not to do a gallery photo. It changed about a month or two ago, I think. I agree that it's extremely annoying.

yes I noticed this too recently. I thought I had accidentally changed my settings, glad to know that it changed for everyone, although pissed off at ebay too for slyly trying to promote auctions more.

Same here.  I was getting so annoyed, but this makes me feel a little better.

Wait! so if you do BIN you don't even have the option of a gallery photo? That really sucks!

was it an auction with a BIN? Or a BIN by itself?

From what I understand the items at the end that do not show the pictures are from ebay sellers who have a STORE and are all BIN w/ an end date longer than 7 days.  The STORE items usually run for as long as 30 days, I think.  But the regular BIN auctions all show up before including their gallery pictures.
